When I pass :headers => true to FasterCSV.foreach it complains. Without it it works. Am I doing something wrong? FasterCSV.foreach(file, {:row_sep => :auto, :col_sep => "\t", :quote_char => "~", :return_headers => false, :headers => true}) do |row| -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m trying to grab a CSV file from a user and let them upload it directly to my database, but doing some minor checks on the data before saving. Which is the easier way to implement this? CSV or FasterCSV? I saw that perhaps there were some issues with FasterCSV and csv files created from Mac versions of Excel. Anyone have any experience with this and can recommend a newbie friendly

For some reason, I''ve posted this question to this forum 4 times now and it never appears in the daily consolidated email I get daily?

Wanted to see if anyone knows of a way - or the preferred way - to do these three tasks with Paperclip: 1) Access the content of an uploaded file before save. I did find that the following works before save, but is there a clearer way to do this: self.uploaded_file.queued_for_write[:original].open.read 2) Access the content of a file after save while my AR model instance is still alive and/or
