janl commented on issue #901: HTTP access cannot be disabled Couch 2.1.0 URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/901#issuecomment-338282777 > I'm interested to see what I can do. Awesome! :) > What do I need to get started? The chttpd module does all the HTTP handling in 2.0 and forward: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/tree/master/src/chttpd/src ? I?d give that a bit of a read through. Erlang basics can be picked up here: http://learnyousomeerlang.com/content > I am curious why this functionality was taken out of 2.1 from 1.6? It is less that it was taken out and more that for 2.0 the code that handles all HTTP in CouchDB is a completely new module written from scratch to account for the cluster functionality that wasn't available in 1.x. Not all features from the old module (couch_httpd) have been ported to the new module. In addition, the way CouchDB 1.x is put together is not what modern idiomatic Erlang applications look like, and 2.x cleaned a lot of that up.
