• 'Stage-Alpha'
• 'Type-Storage' summary: A CouchDB backend for Prosody ...

Note: This module needs updating to the 0.8 storage module API.

Introduction

This is an experimental Prosody backend for CouchDB.

Configuration

In your config file, under the relevant host, add:

datastore = "couchdb";
couchdb_url = "http://127.0.0.1:5984/database-name";

Compatibility

This module was developed as a prototype during development of the storage provider API in Prosody 0.8. The final storage provider API is different, so this module needs updates to work.

Quirks

This implementation is a work in progress.

• The data stored in couchdb is limited to: account data, rosters, private XML and vCards
