Hi, I've skimmed over GridFS. Since Mongo drivers already implement the spec, there's some potential for reuse if we host the new functionality inside the camel-mongodb component code base.
However, rather than adding more options to the existing "mongo:" endpoint, I'd much rather prefer to create a new endpoint prefix: "gridfs:", which maps to a new GridFsComponent class. You can achieve this by configuring ServiceLoader appropriately. I think camel-http could be an example (META-INF/services). Let me know your thoughts. Regards, Raúl.
