Shared Hosting for Everyone, imagined by developers, for developers.
Discovering the Public CloudCouchDB is a document-oriented noSQL database program.
In our example, we use the SSH access and consider the following information:
foo$HOME/couchdb/[foo] must be replaced by the name of your account.
foo@ssh:~$ mkdir couchdb
foo@ssh:~$ cd couchdb
foo@ssh:~/couchdb$ wget -O- https://dlcdn.apache.org/couchdb/source/3.4.1/apache-couchdb-3.4.1.tar.gz | tar -xz --strip-components=1
foo@ssh:~/couchdb$ ./configure --spidermonkey-version 78
foo@ssh:~/couchdb$ make release
Choose the tar.gz package of the latest version available from the official CouchDB site.
Create a local.ini file in the $HOME/couchdb directory with the following directives:
[admins]
admin = mysuperpassword
[couchdb]
single_node = true
[chttpd]
bind_address = ::
port = 5984
Replace mysuperpassword with the password of your choice.
Public Cloud users will need to point the service to a port between 8300 and 8499 and modify this value in the configuration file.
Create a service with following details:
./bin/couchdb -couch_ini /home/[foo]/couchdb/local.ini/home/[foo]/couchdb/rel/couchdbThe address to connect to the CouchDB instance will be services-[foo].alwaysdata.net:[port]. For example, to list the databases:
$ curl -X GET http://admin:mysuperpassword@services-[foo].alwaysdata.net:[port]/_all_dbs
Replace [port] with the port indicated in the local.ini file.
Private Cloud users will need to open the port by creating a firewall rule if they want to access it from the external network:
| Title | Value |
|---|---|
| Protocol | UDP/TCP |
| Type | ACCEPT |
| Direction | Input |
| Hosts | <specify nothing> |
| Ports | 5984 |
| IP version | IPv4/IPv6 |
