The gridfs module serves files out of MongoDB's GridFS, where a file is a record and a row of chunks. A location maps the request to a file by name or by object id, answers a byte range out of the chunks it needs instead of reading the whole file, and takes the content type, the ETag and the Last-Modified from the file's own record. This port only installs the module sources. The module itself is built by the nginx ports when their GRIDFS option is enabled.
