similar to: RSpec and acts_as_attachment

http://weblog.techno-weenie.net/articles/acts_as_attachment is an excellent introduction, but I am a newbie and need the next step outlined for me: How would I implement a controller/view (form) for the model that the attachments model belongs to? (The content items that have pictures attached) Or should I just make the content item model acts_as_attachment instead ? Does anyone know of a

the full-size pics upload OK, but no thumbs or resizing. There are no errors or exceptions that I can see, just not getting any thumbnails. The DB column ''thumbnail'' is always NULL rmagick-1.15.6 is freshly installed. I have the :thumbnails stuff setup per http://weblog.techno-weenie.net/articles/acts_as_attachment/thumbnailing using a model like this: class EventPic

Hi I currently have an app running with acts_as_attachment and db_system. I would like to convert it to attachment_fu and file_system. Has anyone done this? Are there any pitfalls? I am aware that the change from acts_as_attachment to attachment_fu is just a matter of replacing the plugins, but I am wondering about the switch from db_system to file_system. Is it as easy? Just fishing for

This is probably pretty easy, but I''m still a newb as far as ruby and rails goes. I am using the acts_as_attachment and would like to know how I go about setting the path that the file is saved to so that it is saved in a folder named after the models parent model id Thanks in advance Tony --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are

Hi, I''m using acts_as_attachment to create thumbnails in a filesystem (no problem there), but I''m having a rough time figuring out how modify the image to crop it, and then put it back into the filesystem. I think that I can pull the image OK and modify the Image OK with RMagick. So really I just need a pointer on putting it back into the filesystem as a modified thumbnail,

Hi, i just found the acts_as_attachment plugin for image upload, seems sogood but i cant find any docs about it, if someone here using it can give some references or working examples about the plugin that will be excellent. So what you wanna rails today? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I found the post about needing to install acts_as_attachement_1_1_6 if you are not on edge rails. But I am having trouble getting db_system storage to work. As far as I can tell in from the database, things are working, but I don''t see how my model table hooks up with the db_files table so I am having trouble altering the image_tag from the tutorial

I am using acts_as_attachement on my Photo model to upload a photo. I have a wizard-like set of pages that the user can step through. Rather than save the photo to the db/filesystem I want to save it to the session until the user hits save. Saving to the session appears to work fine, however, when I try to retrieve anything from the session afterwards, I get:

As per Alex's suggestion, attached is the proof of concept "sfile" script. If there is anyone out there with great C skills who can recreate this functionality "out of the box", I think there would be a few happy campers (at least two, anyways). -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Re: Encrypt /decrypta file with ssh keys.

Hi, I have installed the acts_as_authenticated plugin from technoweenie, but when I run the tests I get an error (running windoze) -- create_table(:attachments, {:force=>true}) c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:21:in `require__'': no such file to load -- sqlite (MissingSourceFile) I found the require statement in test/abstract_unit.rb

hi, i read this: http://www.johnnysthoughts.com/2006/08/27/ruby-on-rails-using-full-text-search-with-tagging/ does this mean i do not have to install the acts_as_taggable plugin? all i need to do is something like this is my model class? acts_as_ferret :field=>[''name'', :tag_list] -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''ve got a the plugin installed and everything works just fine, however there is one little quirk that I can''t seem to get worked out when I save my photos it puts them each in different folders inside of another folder is there any way that I can elminate these sub folders?

Hi all, I''ve been searching the web and the list archives for help on this and I''ve found some tips, but I''ve been racking my brain on this for hours. I have a Model, View, and Controller that are handling the uploading of a file to my server. I want to make sure that the description is set and that a file is selected to be uploaded. I have set validates_presence_of

So is the official stance as per edge rails that multiple class definitions must go into separate files? I was trying to use STI with acts_as_attachment, to have all my attachment classes go into a single file, for example: attachment.rb class Attachment < ActiveRecord::Base end class UserPicture < Attachment belongs_to :user, :foreign_key => ''owner_id''

I have the following test code: assert_no_difference Avatar, :count do a = create_avatar(:description => nil) assert a.errors.on(:description) end further down, create_avatar looks like: def create_avatar(options = {}) Avatar.create(:description => "Foo Descr.").merge(options) end (Borrowed from the user test in acts_as_auth...) It seems to pass, as my avatar model

Hi I have previously used railscron for server-side manipulation of the database but had a heap of trouble working with it. BackgrounDRB was suggested to me by a friend. I upload some files via acts_as_attachment and these go lie in a dir structure that i desire. What I want from the background process is to periodically (not user initiated) do some file-structure manipulation i.e. I want to

loginGenrator for accounts and custom views ferret for search engine acts_as_attachment with imagick backroundRb for DB cleanup anything else one would use for a social networking site? and would the above plugins be ''good enough'' for a much smaller instance of myspace? looking to have around 1000 or so members. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hello, I wrote a light weight version of acts_as_attachment and this has been working fine for some time now (about a week). Now i get the title error: ActMethods has been removed from the module tree but is still active! I have updated edge rails a few times as my project uses active_resource. The closest thing ive found is an AAA post on beast forum: http://beast.caboo.se/forums/2/topics/664

I''ve got a problem in that users are deleting a paranoid model through the application, including dependents. Some of these dependents are paranoid too, but not the attachments. (I''m using DB file storage.) I need to be able to un-delete these things and I''m now wondering if acts_as_paranoid will work with models that use attachment_fu? If so, in what model to I add the

I''ve tried migrating acts_as_attachment to attachment_fu (just to see if I could replace RMagick with ImageScience+FreeImage), but the quality of the thumbnails is just horrendous, blurred beyond recognition (downscaling a 1280x1024 to a few considerably smaller thumbnails). Changing attachment_fu to use RMagick again and the thumbnails were crispy sharp again. I was wondering
