Trying to get Gridform working but failed miserably: Gridform is here. http://aheckmann.github.com/gridform/ I need a form somewhere to make it easier to test on the browser. need a lot of modules in your project to get this to work in the first place winedb came from nodecellar code

app.js

var http = require('http');
var assert = require('assert');
var gridform = require('gridform');
var formidable = require('formidable');
var mongo = require('mongo')
  , database = mongo.connect('mydb')
  , collection = database.collection('fs');

// assuming you've already created a db instance and opened it
gridform.db = database;
gridform.mongo = mongo;

// in your http server
var app = http.Server(function (req, res) {

  // create a gridform
  var form = gridform();

  // returns a custom IncomingForm
  assert(form instanceof formidable.IncomingForm);

  // optionally store per-file metadata
  form.on('fileBegin', function (name, file) {
    file.metadata = 'so meta'
  })

  // parse normally
  form.parse(req, function (err, fields, files) {

    if (err) {
      res.send(err)
    }
    else{
      // use files and fields as you do today
      var file = files.upload;

      file.name // the uploaded file name
      file.type // file type per [mime](https://github.com/bentomas/node-mime)
      file.size // uploaded file size (file length in GridFS) named "size" for compatibility
      file.path // same as file.name. included for compatibility
      file.lastModified // included for compatibility

      // files contain additional gridfs info
      file.root // the root of the files collection used in MongoDB ('fs' here means the full collection in mongo is named 'fs.files')
      file.id   // the ObjectId for this file
    }
  });
});

app.listen(1337, '127.0.0.1');
console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:1337/');
