Answer 1

If you are on Linux, You could write a quick shell script to POST the contents of valid json files to Couch.

To test couch I did something like this:

cat myFile.json | POST -sS "http://myDB.couchone.com/testDB" -c "application/json"

myFile.json has the json contents I wanted to import into the database.

Another alternative, if you don't like command line or aren't using Linux, and prefer a gui, you can use a tool like RESTClient
