[jira] [Closed] (COUCHDB-540) oauth_token_users seems to be in the wrong place

["Alexander Shorin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-540?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Alexander Shorin closed COUCHDB-540.
------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.2

I'd like to close this issue by next reasons:

1) In the recent CouchDB releases (1.2.0+) it's possible to setup OAuth credentials within _users database. See an example usage on [wiki|http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Link_Collection_Authentication_and_Authorization#couch_httpd_oauth::oauth_authentication_handler] and COUCHDB-1238 issue for more info.
2) For older releases it's possible to keep such information within /etc/couchdb/local.d/*.ini configuration files, splitting OAuth credentials from main CouchDB configuration.

> If one has many users, the oath_token_users section of /etc/couchdb/local.ini becomes quite large. This:
> a) makes legitimate configuration of the server less friendly
> b) makes the file extremely hard to manage via version control
> c) is probably a violation of the FHS.
