Hello everyone,
I was having an issue accessing the uploaded file in my model when I
passed it with the params hash like:
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user])
if @user.save
redirect_to( @user )
else
@title = "Sign up"
render ''new''
end
end
I thought it would work because it worked for :password and :password
confirmation in my model with:
attr_accessor :password, :password_confirmation
Which as I understand gives you setters and getters for the symbols that
are passed. So I added:
attr_accessor :password, :password_confirmation, :uploaded_file
And I got errors saying uploaded_file was a nil class
I got it to work by simply creating a function in my model:
def pass_upload( upload )
@profile_picture = upload
end
And then in my controller:
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user])
@user.pass_upload(params[:user][:profile_picture])
if @user.save
redirect_to( @user )
else
@title = "Sign up"
render ''new''
end
end
But this does not seem like the best methods I was wondering if any one
knew why attr_accessor wouldn''t allow easy access to the upload_file
class like it did with the more simple variables :password and
:password_confirmation.
Thank you
