    <p>You could <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8515410/store-files-on-disk-or-mongodb">try storing the files in mongodb</a>, which would mean that they would then be hooked into your collection system and be queryable on the client and server. Then, just publish the relevant data to the client for specific users, or use Meteor.methods to expose information that way.</p> <p><strong>Example:</strong></p> <p>Assuming files are stored in MongoDB, let's first publish them to the client:</p> <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>Meteor.publish("files", function(folder) { if (!this.userId) return; // the userHasAccessToFolder method checks whether // this user is allowed to see files in this folder if (userHasAccessToFolder(this.userId, folder)) // if so, return the files for that folder // (filter the results however you need to) return Files.find({folder: folder}); }); </code></pre> <p>Then on the client, we autosubscribe to the published channel so that whenever it changes, it gets refreshed:</p> <pre class="lang-js prettyprint-override"><code>Meteor.startup(function() { Meteor.autosubscribe(function() { // send the current folder to the server, // which will return the files in the folder // only if the current user is allowed to see it Meteor.subscribe("files", Session.get("currentFolder")); }); }); </code></pre> <p>NB. I haven't tested above code so consider it pseudocode, but it should point you in the general direction for solving this problem. The hard part is storing the files in mongodb!</p>

    2. COWhat do you mean? If your file is in mongo, you can just retrieve it from the database (if you allow access) with the collection API. Eg. `Files.find({filename: "myfile.jpg"});`

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
