| Description |
|
In 2.6 we'll have customizable roles, and so not every user who will be able to insert documents into a GridFS bucket will have permission to create the prerequisite unique index on {files_id:1, n:1}. Proposed fix: add a createGridFS bucket command, so that admins can give users the ability to create GridFS buckets without having privileges to build indexes generally. Driver changes needed: drivers should be changed to use createGridFS, then maybe fail over to trying the ensureIndex. (Eventually, the ensureIndex call could be dropped from drivers, too.) Docs changes needed: document the new command, maybe add a release note that taking away createIndex from a user will require upgrading drivers in order to use GridFS. Tools changes needed: mongofiles, I guess. |
