A docker image for Couchdb that uses JWT for authentication

Docker Image for CouchDB 1.6.1 with JWT Auth

What is it?

• Base 1.6.1 couchdb image from klaemo/docker-couchdb
• Adds the JWT auth plugin softapalvelin/couch_jwt_auth, and fixes some dependencies so it works.
• Apply a config file with JWT settings.

How do I use it?

To run it with your own JWT secret,

• Replace local.ini with your own CouchDB settings, or use as-is. Note that the included file enables CORS.
• Modify jwt_auth.ini to include your secret key (base64url encoded -- not plain base64). See softapalvelin/couch_jwt_auth for more information on what can go there.
• Build it with docker build -t yourname/couchdb-jwt .
• Run with run.sh or see couchdb on Dockerhub for more ways to run.
