harish1992 opened a new issue #2144: Using `+` in a document `_id`
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2144
 
 
   While creating document, should `+` sign be percent encoded in `id`?
   
   consider this:
   
   Document creation:
   
   ` curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5984/kitura_test_db -d '{"id": "123+456","key": "123+456"}' `
   
   Response: 
   
      `{ "ok":true,"id":"fd848ff548334259626e95c9f7010b7c","rev":"1-13e6d186ed0ff9a304acf9e00c6778da"}`
   
   The document get created successfully.
   
   Document retrieval:
   
   `  curl http://127.0.0.1:5984/kitura_test_db/123+456  `
   
   Response:
   
   `{"error":"not_found","reason":"missing"}`
   
   Whereas the request:
   
   `curl http://127.0.0.1:5984/kitura_test_db/123%2B456`
   
   Response:
   
   `{"_id":"123+456","_rev":"1-34d19d1d466727d25183f2553b6c4a80","favorited":false,"value":"value1","truncated":false,"created_at":"Tue Aug 28 21:16:23 +0000 2012"}`
   
   Does retrieval require the `id` to be percent encoded? if so, is this documented somewhere? since `+` allowed character in `url`
