Hi Daniel, You can use the copy API, that should duplicate the document for you. See the docs for more http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/api/document/common.html#copy--db-docid

The original document has (maybe) attachments. Currently what I am doing is: 1. Get doc1. I get an attachment stub. 2. Put this document to host2/db2/doc_id2 3. Now I should loop through all attachments, get them, and put them to the new document. Probably something will not be guesses right (content_type, ...). Instead, I would like to use a method which: 1. Duplicates the document by using a single GET to obtain the original documents + attachments, and creates the new document with a single PUT/POST (is this possible, no matter the amount of attachments?) 2. Does not use the filesystem to save the attachments 3. Does not use replication 4. Does not recreate the attachments: specifically, no re-guessing of the content type and other attachment properties. To make it clear: I want an exact copy of the original document, except that: 1. The doc_id is different 2. It is in a different host/database than the original document 3. There is no revision Is there any built-in couchdb support for this? Thanks, Daniel Link to original SO question: http://stackoverflow.com/q/20386913/647991
