I can't create a document in my couchdb database

I am new to web engineering and databases and I hope this is the right place for my question. I am trying to create a database with couchdb but unfortunately I can't create a document with more data than the id. If the document contains just the id, then the "create document" function works. I am really confused and do not know if I miss something.

Here is a link to a video, where I am showing my problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24X3dk1j4WM&feature=youtu.be

Thank you for any answer that could possibly help me.

Solution

  • As mentioned in the comments, you are missing a comma. Try this:

    {
    "_id": "my_doc", // => notice comma
    "number": 23
}
