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 think the lambda

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 called with a new file, upload_data= tries to copy a file that

On the creation of a member the member''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

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

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 model associated with it are saved to the db, but the file is

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| logger.info "after_attachment_saved" end # in console - always

I''ve spent at least 2 hours on this one problem. On my local machine in my controller I have this: def new @page_title = "New User" @user = User.new @photo = Photo.new end All is good. Now, on the remote server I get an error when accessing the ''new'' view. If I remove @photo = Photo.new from the controller then the error goes away. This same error

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, #Allow standard image formats :path_prefix

Hello, I''m working on an import utility that will match the functionality of uploading an object of a model that uses attachment_fu for thumbnailing, etc. Rather than uploading the file via a form, I want to populate the params[:image][:uploaded_data] with data from a file already on the server''s file system. So far, I''ve been able to copy to an instance of Tempfile

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 records are also created in my application database.

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

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''t seem to

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 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 in the file system to see if that works

Hi, My S3 bucket is located in the US I have attachment_fu working when using file system storage I have sw-swf upload plugin working with my S3 account but I can not get attachment_fu to work with S3 storage. the error I get is : AWS::S3::RequestTimeout in Upload filesController#create Your socket connection to the server was not read from or written to within the timeout period.

Hi - I would like to iterate through a native folder and execute attachment_fu per each file. Has anyone done this before? Or have any tips or code snippets? Attachment_fu works well via form - but since I have a sizable amount of files I simply want to batch them in - just as if I were doing it via a form. Many thanks! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received

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

Hi All, I am having a problem with the attachment_fu plugin and flac audio files. In the dev environment, using mongrel, the form upload object does not seem to have any associated content_type. I get the following attachment_fu validation error: "Content type can''t be blank". I don''t understand why the file_data would not have any content_type. Doesn''t rails

It took me a while to figure this out and I don''t see any wiki pages for attachment_fu so I figure I would just post this here. I didn''t like the way attachment_fu by default creates directories under a given directory for a specific class e.g. item_image/1/img_1.jpg item_image/1/img_1_thumb.jpg item_image/2/img_2.jpg item_image/2/img_2_thumb.jpg item_image/3/img_3.jpg
