Configuration
=============

The CouchDB Server Configuration API provide an interface to query and update
the various configuration values within a running CouchDB instance.

Accessing the local node's configuration
========================================

The literal string ``_local`` serves as an alias for the local node name, so
for all configuration URLs, ``{node-name}`` may be replaced ``_local``, to
interact with the local node's configuration.

``/_node/{node-name}/_config``
==============================

.. http:get:: /_node/{node-name}/_config
    :synopsis: Obtains a list of the entire server configuration

    Returns the entire CouchDB server configuration as a JSON structure. The
    structure is organized by different configuration sections, with
    individual values.
