how to create "Users" in couchDB (not admin) ..?

+3  A: 

the couchdb-wiki has a short article about the securiy features of couchdb and how to configure a "reader" which is what resembles a user in a relational database

http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Security_Features_Overview (found in the reference section)

This is correct. The short answer to IDanil's question is, "create a document in the `_users` database." However your link explains all the details and implications.

A: 

I think you have to put a web framework in front to do this the way many sites do. Couchdb admin roles do not work on a record by record basis, so if you create a reader who can read the profiles or account table they can read record.
