Getting all Bucket Information
To retrieve all bucket information for a cluster use the GET /pools/default/buckets HTTP method and URI.
Description
To create an SDK for Couchbase Server, use either the proxy path or the direct path to connect to Couchbase Server. If the SDK uses the direct path, the SDK is not insulated from most reconfiguration changes to the bucket. This means that the SDK needs to either poll the bucket’s URI or connect to the streaming URI to receive updates when the bucket configuration changes. Bucket configuration changes occur under the follow circumstances:
- 
Nodes are added. 
- 
Nodes are removed. 
- 
Nodes fail.
