It seems that attachment_fu is a pretty popular plugin (it''s great), but I''ve been having a terrible time trying to figure out an issue when using "update_attributes". I''m storing files on the file system rather than in a database. It seems that when "update_attributes" is call...

...39;'s picture uploads as it should. However, when updating the member, while selecting a new picture, an error is thrown: can''t convert nil into String RAILS_ROOT: /Users/chris/Documents/Projects/Rails/CommunityCMS/trunk Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace vendor/plugins/attachment_fu/lib/technoweenie/attachment_fu/backends/file_system_backend.rb:21:in `join'' vendor/plugins/attachment_fu/lib/technoweenie/attachment_fu/backends/file_system_backend.rb:21:in `full_filename'' vendor/plugins/attachment_fu/lib/technoweenie/attachment_fu.rb:281:in `temp_paths''...

First off, I''m not trying to spec attachment_fu, I know it''s been tested. But, I added some code to that model that I do need to test. Basically, I need to somehow fulfill the "uploaded_data" property so I can actually run my tests(otherwise they fail because of validations). The "uploaded_data" field is what wou...

Hi there, I''d like to use RMagick to watermark an image in the tmp directory before Attachment_fu saves it to Amazon S3. I took a look at the callbacks available in attachment_fu. There''s an ''after_attachment_saved'' method but this would be too late, and a ''before_thumbnail_saved'' but this is no good because it''s for thumbnails. I think I...

Hi, I''m using attachment_fu to store files on amazon s3. A background job is currently performing the upload and I''m having a strange issue where the very first file uploaded/created (attachment_fu uploads when creating the object) does not get uploaded. The db information is all all good. The model and attachment...

Hi, I use attachment_fu in one of my apps and recently I''ve realized that udpates are taking too much time. After some debugging I''ve found that attachment_fu is calling after_attachment_saved callback no mather if attachemnt has changed or not. For example this code: after_attachment_saved do |photo|...

I just installed attachment_fu and for some reason, it seems to be looking in the wrong location for my images. I have a Product model that belongs to a photo model. the photo model has the attachment_fu installed and configured like so: class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base has_attachment :content_type => :image,...

Merbists, I saw a note in the attachment_fu source code regarding supporting Merb[1] as well as a post on the Caboose forum[2]. Has anyone gotten Merb working with Rick Olson''s attachment_fu to handle uploads for a Rails app? I''ve hacked together something, but it''s not pretty. Besides fixing the TODO mentioned i...

Hi all. I''ve done a little google search, but doesn''t find anything (with "attachment_fu default path") that could help me in changing attachment_fu''s default path. My model: [audio.rb] has_attachment :max_size => 20.megabytes has_attachment :content_type => "audio/mpeg" has_attachment :storage => :file_system has_attachment :path_p...

I have a problem displaying images when using attachment_fu. When I try to display the image, only about 40k appears in the browser, and with some images even that much is not visible (just garbage when I view source). I can display images smaller than 40k correctly. I''m storing the images in the database (mysql) and haven''t tried storing...

Hi all.... Admittedly I''m new to Rails and trying to find my way but I''m having an issue with uploading documents with attachment_fu. I have a form where I''m uploading multiple attachments (using AJAX to add file_filed_tags). That seems to work pretty well. The problem is I can''t seem to get the content_type to work as I would expect. For example, if I use this: has_attachment :content_type => ['...

Hey everyone, I''ve been using attachment_fu to upload large media files to S3 with great success in my rails application. However, it has recently stopped uploading. My app appears to be uploading to somewhere, as my browser is displaying a ''sending request to..." status message for about the right length of time. The record...

Hi All, I''m trying to use a form to upload a photo that I will save using attachment_fu. I''m very new to Facebookr so I apologize if this is covered somewhere, but I''m kind of stumped. Here''s what I''m doing now: <% facebook_form_for(:my_object, :url => { :action => ''upload_photo'', :id => params[:id] }, :html => { :...

I am working on a small model mixin called attachment_kung to make attachment_fu polymorphic, so you no longer need a different table and Model class for every associated attachment (Productimage, Ad_doc, etc). All you really need is one model and table to handel all your attachments - in some cases, anyway. I have the code working, but have run into one small hitch that I can&...

Hi - I am trying to dynamically create my partition folders via attachment_fu. I have read about a hack that allows you to do this on the attachment model: :partition => lambda {|a| a.article_id} Which passes the model''s object into the lambda and uses the ''article_id'' attribute as its directory name. However, this isn''t work for me...

I have attachment_fu working on my local Windows machine (localhost: 3000) But when I transfer it to Textdrive (Solaris), it doesn''t work. Any ideas? Give it a shot: http://haloresearch.textdriven.com:8217/raw_data_files/new I haven''t got the logger working yet on TextDrive, but that will be my nex...

I am using attachment_fu to create thumbnails, and it is working great. However, I am have a view with all my users thumbnails displayed and am trying to make it so when you click on a thumbnail of their avatar, it shows that users profile. In order to accomplish this I have saved a user_id identifier for each avatar, bu...

RMagick (and ImageMagick) have been criticized for memory leaks, though the problem is avoidable by timely garbage collection -- see this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk/browse_thread/thread/edee971625603f82/e402fb95de40d54b Attachment_fu does not call GC.start in any fashion that I can see, so my questions are these: does it need to, and if so, where would be the optimal place? It appears that AttachmentFu::Processors::RmagickProcessor#with_image may be the right method -- perhaps in the ensure clause? Somewhere else? Or should GC...
