[jira] [Commented] (COUCHDB-1229) _update handler doesn't support slashes in doc _id

["Marcello Nuccio (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1229?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13087634#comment-13087634 ] 

Marcello Nuccio commented on COUCHDB-1229:
------------------------------------------

Would it be wise then to forbid the creation of documents with "/" in the _id?

I thought it was supported because the designs documents have "/" in the _id. But if there are known problems, then I think the user should be promptly made aware of them.

> Let's say you have:
> - a doc with _id foo/bar
> - a show function named baz
> - a update function named baz
> Then _show/baz/foo/bar is valid but _update/baz/foo/bar is not. Only _update/baz/foo%2Fbar works.
> This is particularly annoying when you want to rewrite /something/* to _update/baz/foo/* (rewriting /something/* to _show/baz/foo/* works perfectly).
