Security and Authentication is brilliantly simple with CouchDB. _users is a special database of users (except for sys admin). Only sys admin and the owner of the record can query a record in the _users database (table).
To authenticate a user, simply query _users for the user name, passing the users credentials (name and pwd). If you get the record back, they are authenticated.
Anyone can create a record in this table, but users cannot create roles on their own record (you cannot grant access to a database to yourself)
Since the _users record is JSON, you can add additional structures to the dictionary. I am simply storing a list of MVPs (uuid) that a user has permission to query in the _user record, then when they validate themselves, I can display the MVPs they can select from when they now run a query for data.
Try it out with any of the dummy users I created in 5985.
