    Description

      Description

      Per the GridFS specification, the contentType and aliases fields are deprecated. Applications are encouraged to add a contentType/aliases field to the metadata document instead of using the deprecated top-level contentType/aliases field.

      It would be nice to also document the deprecation of the contentType and aliases fields in the MongoDB server documents:
