    10 = Configuration =

    11 In your config file, under the relevant host, add:

    12 {{{

    13 datastore = "couchdb";

    14 couchdb_url = "http://127.0.0.1:5984/database-name";

    15 }}}

    19 This module was developed as a prototype during development of the storage provider API in Prosody 0.8. The final storage provider API is different, so this module needs updates to work.
