GRIDFS mp3 Collection with meteor

I am new to meteor and I am trying to define an mp3 collection and then upload music to it from the admin page. I have these packages installed: cfs:standard-packages cfs:gridfs cfs:filesystem 1) I have defined the collection both on the client and the server but I dont see it show up in my RoboMongo, I dont know what I am missing

AudioCollection = new FS.Collection("audiocollection", {
  stores: [new FS.Store.GridFS("audiocollection")]
});

2) How do I handle my template event the music file uploaded by an admin and insert it into my AudioCollection.

Template.example_music.events({
  'click #example':function(e,t){
    //Simple Event to upload files into mongo.

  }
})
Solution

  • What I did was to store my files in AWS and then save the url in mongoDB, so in my web application I request for the urls and load it in the browser. That does the magic and load my file comntents.
