-----------------------------------

             Summary: API doc for _replicate doesn't describe dictionary form of source/target
                 Key: COUCHDB-1938
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1938
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Jens Alfke


The API documentation for replication only describes the "source" and "target" properties as being strings containing database names or URLs. It doesn't describe the enhanced form where these are dictionaries/objects that can contain additional parameters like authentication settings or extra HTTP headers.

The current docs that are missing this info:
http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/api/server/common.html#replicate

Unofficial docs from the wiki that describe the enhanced form:
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Replication#Authentication
