+# couchdb
+
+This module monitors vital statistics of a local Apache CouchDB 2.x server, including:
+
+* Overall server reads/writes
+* HTTP traffic breakdown
+ * Request methods (`GET`, `PUT`, `POST`, etc.)
+ * Response status codes (`200`, `201`, `4xx`, etc.)
+* Active server tasks
+* Replication status (CouchDB 2.1 and up only)
+* Erlang VM stats
+* Optional per-database statistics: sizes, # of docs, # of deleted docs
+
+### Configuration
+
+Sample for a local server running on port 5984:
+```yaml
+local:
+ user: 'admin'
+ pass: 'password'
+ node: 'couchdb@127.0.0.1'
+```
+
+Be sure to specify a correct admin-level username and password.
+
+You may also need to change the `node` name; this should match the value of `-name NODENAME` in your CouchDB's `etc/vm.args` file. Typically this is of the form `couchdb@fully.qualified.domain.name` in a cluster, or `couchdb@127.0.0.1` / `couchdb@localhost` for a single-node server.
+
+If you want per-database statistics, these need to be added to the configuration, separated by spaces:
+```yaml
+local:
+ ...
+ databases: 'db1 db2 db3 ...'
+```
