loopback-component-storage-gridfs-httprange

This repo is modification from https://github.com/MrMartiniMo/loopback-component-storage-gridfs

Uses mongoDB GridFS to manage binary contents of your loopback application.

Inspired by

• https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-component-storage
• https://github.com/jdrouet/loopback-component-storage-mongo
• https://github.com/MrMartiniMo/loopback-component-storage-gridfs

Behaviors

• Files are identified by id, not by file name. So it is possible to have files of the same name in one container.
• Added HTTP Range feature
• Added Bandwidth Limit feature via datasource options

npm install --save loopback-component-storage-gridfs-httprange
