Installation

After you install it, visit this link to open Removalist:

http://yourcouch/yourdb/_design/removalist/_rewrite

Quick install

Get a couch, make a database and put some data into it.

Copy these utilities to the new db:

curl -X POST http://user:pass@YOURCOUCH/_replicate -d '{"source":"http://max.couchone.com/apps","target":"YOURDB", "doc_ids":["_design/removalist"]}' -H "Content-type: application/json"

In-depth install

You'll have to get yourself a couch. The easiest way is from the instructions on this page. Once it's going, open up http://YOURCOUCH/_utils and create a new database to store your data.

You can either replicate the couchapp from my couch max.couchone.com/apps/_design/removalist (quickest option) or, if you want to hack on the removalist source code first, you'll need to install mikeal/node.couchapp.js and clone this repo.
