Hello together, I've been reading through the mailing lists and the JIRA issues and the issue came up already twice: There's currently no possibility for configuring authentication_handlers for chttp like there was for http.
1) http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-user/201609.mbox/browser 2) http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/couchdb-dev/201609.mbox/browser The thing is: I'd love to test and use CouchDb 2.0 on our project, however I do depend on a third-party authentication module (couch_jwt_auth). So I went ahead and went checking the sources (always handy to know at least some erlang when you're using CouchDb!) and realized that it would actually be pretty straight-forward to use the mechanism used in couch_httpd.erl also for chttpd to make authentication_handlers configurable and thus third-party auth modules available. But before I start hacking away and send a pull-request I wondered if there was a deeper reason for why this hasn't been done yet and which I'm still ignoring/overseeing? Thanks a lot in advance, and thanks a lot for the effort put into CouchDb, Daniel
