      Summary

      Optionally include gridfs metadata in chunks objects / allow a separate piece of metadata to be included in chunk objects.  This enables users to store multi-tenent gridfs data in the same chunks and metadata collections, if they want to (see the attached Jira ticket).

      Motivation

      Who is the affected end user?

      GridFS users in multi-tenent environments who want to store all data in the same chunks and metadata collections.

      How does this affect the end user?

      users either cannot do this; or must work around this limitation (ex: the Nodejs user uses custom object ids that include tenent ids inside of them).

      How likely is it that this problem or use case will occur?

      n/a

      If the problem does occur, what are the consequences and how severe are they?

      n/a

      Is this issue urgent?

      no.

      Is this ticket required by a downstream team?

      no.

      Is this ticket only for tests?

      no.

      Acceptance Criteria

      Add metadata to the chunks collection in GridFS collections.
