I’m writing a GUI app to browse the contents of databases, mostly for debugging/troubleshooting purposes. It currently lists all the existing documents, as Futon does, but I’d like to be able to show all the _deleted_ documents too. But I can’t find a query in the API that will do that. Effectively I want something like “GET /db/_all_docs?includedeleteddocstoo=true”. Is there such a thing?
Similarly, my app will show the entire revision tree of a document, including the branches if there are conflicts. It does this by using ?open_revs=all to get the rev IDs of all leaves, and then ?rev=XX&revs_info=true on each of those revisions to get its history, and then merging the histories together. But this doesn’t find already-deleted branches, because they’re not returned by open_revs. Is there a way to get those too? —Jens
