Hi folks, We've started using CouchDB recently and decided to start with your 2.0 release. We're really loving the platform so far. We are trying to deploy CouchDB 2.0 with a configuration management application called Salt. I have a working configuration that does 99% of the install - although there appear to be a couple of final steps that need to be performed in a web browser which is not ideal from a config management PoV.
So here are the final steps I have - please correct me if I am not doing this right. I saw an error in my logs which Googling brought me to this Hacker News thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12545569 The technique proposed seems to work fine. I go to http://hostname:5984/_utils, create an admin account and then proceed to the single server setup which completes the installation of the necessary database tables. So my question is: Is there any way to set up the admin account and trigger the database tables to be created without an administrator visiting the server in a web browser? many thanks in advance for your valuable time, Dan Ballance.
