[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-587) provide peer port information to
externals
provide peer port information to externals
------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-587
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-587
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Mark Hammond
When requests are made to an external, couch DB provides a 'peer' item in the request info with the address of the couchdb instance (eg, 127.0.0.1). CouchDB should also provide the port on this address, so externals can reliably make requests back to couch.
The comments in COUCHDB-393 imply this might not be trivial.

--------------------------------------
Oh sorry - I misunderstood the comments in 393 to imply couchdb doesn't actually *know* the port anywhere convenient.

Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-587:
-------------------------------------------
I think the "external script" refernece in COUCHDB-393 is misleading. That was meant as "a script not under CouchDB's control." Passing port info along to the _external handlers should be cake. There should be an example of grabbing that port info in couch_httpd.erl somewhere after the loop starts as it writes that to the log.
Also 393 would've been trivial had a -S option not been vetoed.
