MONGOC_GRIDFS_BUCKET_UPLOAD_FROM_STREAM(3)

NAME
mongoc_gridfs_bucket_upload_from_stream - mongoc_gridfs_bucket_upload_from_stream()

SYNOPSIS

bool
mongoc_gridfs_bucket_upload_from_stream (mongoc_gridfs_bucket_t *bucket,
                                         const char *filename,
                                         mongoc_stream_t *source,
                                         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.

•   source: A mongoc_stream_t used as the source of the data to upload.

•   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

Reads from the source stream and writes to a new file in GridFS. The file id is generated automatically. To specify an explicit file id, use mongoc_gridfs_bucket_upload_from_stream_with_id().

Reads from the source stream using mongoc_stream_read() until the return value indicates end-of-file. The source stream is not closed after calling mongoc_gridfs_bucket_upload_from_stream(); call mongoc_stream_close() after.

RETURNS

True if the operation succeeded. False otherwise and sets error.

SEE ALSO:
mongoc_stream_file_new() and mongoc_stream_file_new_for_path(), which can be used to create a source stream from a file.
