the fastest way to upload attachments
Hey,pal! a common way to upload attachments to CouchDB is to ajax a form
including a file, I wanna know the fastest way to upload attachments.
Does it need to apply a backend(I like the RESTful).Any guidance would
be greatly appreciated.

I don't know if this will be helpful, but this is what I do using nginx and
node. It is efficient and easy.
I use nginx to upload the file and proxy the upload to node. Nginx waits
until the file is uploaded and then sends a request to node that just has
the file location on the disk. Then I use nano to attach the file to couch.
Even if you upload the file some other way, I highly recommend nano. One
nano command does the attachment ...
fs.createReadStream(filePath).pipe(nano.attachment.insert id,
attachmentName, null, ...

What is your setup?
Basically you would usually upload file first, save it in in some temporary
directory and then attach your existing couch document. After that the
attachment can be either done with cURL directly, or you can use some
helper library to do it. In my case, I use PHP-On-Couch (
https://github.com/dready92/PHP-on-Couch/blob/master/doc/couch_client-document.md#attaching-a-file-to-a-document
).
