[Backgroundrb-devel] Backgroundrb-devel Digest, Vol 24, Issue 7
Hi, all. Just wondering if anyone has tried using the Paperclip file upload plugin with Backgroundrb. My current implementation uses attachment_fu - I save the file initially to the file system without generating thumbs, then a bdrb process picks up that file, generates thumbs, and saves to S3. This works fine and dandy, the only hitch is I want to save image metadata in the same table as my model (User, in this case), which is how Paperclip does it. My question is, how would you pass off file uploading/thumbnail generation/S3 upload to a background process using Paperclip?
