How to run CouchDB 2.x on macOS
Hi,
How are you running CouchDB 2.x on macOS? Is there any way to install
CouchDB that's not by this GUI app? I would prefer a Docker image, but I'm
open to alternatives.

@Geoffrey, @Joan, thanks for sharing! I'll take a look at the options and
figure out which one is the best for my purpose.

The official 2.0.0 installer for Mac is here:
https://apache.bintray.com/couchdb/mac/2.0.0/Apache-CouchDB-2.0.0.zip
We need to get brew updated - brew is still at 1.6.1.

And a follow-up: I also created a service that works with docker swarm:
https://github.com/redgeoff/couchdb-docker-service. This makes it really
easy to set up a cluster, but the problem with this solution is that if you
have multiple servers, the CouchDB files can't really move around unless
you use some network file system like EFS. (This is a known limitation of
docker swarm). And, unfortunately, I've found that running CouchDB over EFS
is about 10 times slower than running with a local disk. So, I'd only
recommend the docker swarm route if you have a single server and just want
to spin up a few nodes for testing.
Sorry, if this is a little overkill :). My top recommendation is definitely
https://github.com/redgeoff/redgeoff-couchdb-docker if you just want a
single node, but others may think otherwise.

And a follow-up: I also created a service that works with docker swarm:

Hi Joel,
I've been working on an image that we are using in production and has been
working well: https://github.com/redgeoff/redgeoff-couchdb-docker
You can of course use the "official" couchdb docker image at
https://github.com/apache/couchdb-docker, but I found it missing a number
of necessary features, especially when it comes to clustering.
