NAME Cantella::Store::UUID::File
A NOTE ABOUT EXTENSIONS
To make file location deterministic, files are stored under only their UUID, along with their respective meta file which is named $UUID.meta eg (DD5EB40A-164B-11DE-9893-5FA9AE3835A0.meta). The meta files may contain any number of attributes relevant to the file such as original name, extension, MIME typ, etc. Meta files are stored in JSON format.
