mongoc_stream_t *
mongoc_gridfs_bucket_open_upload_stream (mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t *bucket,


                                         const char *filename,


                                         const bson_t *opts,


                                         bson_value_t *file_id,


                                         bson_error_t *error);

PARAMETERS

bucket: A mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t.
filename: The name of the file to create.
opts: A bson_t or NULL.
file_id: A bson_value_t to receive the generated id of the file or NULL.
error: A bson_error_t to receive any error or NULL.

opts may be NULL or a BSON document with additional command options:

chunkSizeBytes: An int32 chunk size to use for this file. Overrides the chunkSizeBytes set on bucket.
metadata: A bson_t representing metadata to include with the file.

DESCRIPTION

Opens a stream for writing to a new file in GridFS. The file id is generated automatically. To specify an explicit file id, use mongoc_gridfs_bucket_open_upload_stream_with_id().

RETURNS

A mongoc_stream_t that can be written to or NULL on failure. Errors on this stream can be retrieved with mongoc_gridfs_bucket_stream_error(). After calling mongoc_stream_close() the file is completely written in GridFS.
