I''m trying to display an image in a view from MySQL, but I''m not sure where to put the send_data call. Any help would be great. :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m a newbie having trouble using send_data to send a jpeg file to the browser for display in an html img tag. This is the relevant code from my controller (photos_controller.rb): def retrieve @photo = Photo.find(params[:id]) send_data File.read(@photo.abs_img_path), :type => "image/ jpeg", :disposition => "inline" end def download @photo =

So this is the original code I used, and it worked send_file ''vendor/sprites/not-found.png'', {:filename => "sprite-not-found.png", :type => "image/png", :disposition => "inline"} Now I switched it to this (going to be adding imageMagick) send_data File.read(''vendor/sprites/not-found.png''), {:filename =>

Hi, for those with experience of Gruff module: suppose I want to send image from server straight to the browser (as example on gruff web site): send_data(g.to_blob, :disposition => ''inline'', :type => ''image/png'', :filename => "gruff.png") the server seems sending this binary data ok, but I am having

Guys & gals, I''m also learning RoR (using v2.3.4). I''ve got a basic scaffold working for image file creation, and - to a point - image file display. The send_data function is working in my controller - no problem. The model code is able to parse the uploaded file construct too. def show @image = Image.find(params[:id]) send_data(@image.binary_data, :type =>

Does anybody know if there is a big performance/time cost difference between these two methods of serving a file: ------------------------------- #1 ----------------------------------------- send_file "test.png", :type => ''image/png'', :disposition => ''inline'' ------------------------------- #2------------------------------------------

Hi I''m doing some server-side graphics with Java2D and I''m trying to stream the resulting image to the browser using send_data. When I try to view the image that I streamed, the browser just shows the URL in the window as a very small image (about .4 kb) when I am using jpeg format. For png, it tells me that the image has errors and can''t load it. Here''s what

Hi, I''m trying to use send_data to stream a file that is stored on my disk (not as a blob in the database.) So, this is what I''ve tried: send_data File.new(filename).read But, the file doesn''t download. I think send_data expects something other than a String (which is returned by File.read.) Anyone know how to get this working? The reason this is being done is to

Hi, I am using send_data to allow users to download files from the database but ran into a small problem, it seems that files upload fine but when they download only 64kb of the file is sent. I''m using the basic rails code from the Agile book: #upload code in my sheet model def file=(document_field) self.filename = base_part_of(document_field.original_filename)

I''m trying to use send_data to send a simple text file. Every reference I can find says I can supply a MIME type with the ":type" option and that will determine the kind of file I get on the machine that downloads the file I''m sending. Instead I ALWAYS get an XML file. here''s the code snippet: File.open(@temp_download_file_path, ''r'') do

i''m storing images in database. i have this action in controller: def image begin item = StoredItem.find(:first, :conditions => {:id => params[:id]}) rescue return end return if item.nil? if item.image_binary.nil? render :nothing => true else send_data(item.image_binary, :type => item.image_datatype, :disposition =>

Has anyone else had trouble using send_data with internet explorer. As usual things were working fine in firefox and safari until I tested in IE :). With the following code I''m seeing an image show up in firefox but the "X" indicating no image found in IE. Any ideas? @image_data = Image.find(:all, :conditions=>{:url => "http://reddit.com"}) @image =

Short question: is there way to tell EM to actually send data after send_data call? I''m building a file transferring app. I send Mashal.dump''ed metadata first, and then - the file contents (chunked). I found a silly bug: receive_data() gets marshalled metadata and the first chunk of the file in a single variable. Like that: c1.send_data("meta")

Hi! I need to generate some JS from Ruby. This is no AJAX related stuff so RJS templates are not help to me. Also I want to not mix JS with HTML, so putting JS in .rhtml templates is no go for me. Currently I made some action in controller, prepared JS code and I''m sending it via send_data as ''text/javascript''. In .rhtml templates I use <script> tag with src

I am using eventmachine 0.8.1 on windows XP and am having very odd problems. This snippet of code gives the error that follows it. class EchoServer def receive_data data puts data send_data ">>>you sent: #{data}" if data =~ /quit/i puts "quitting" close_connection EventMachine::stop_event_loop end end end

I am having trouble using the "resize" function (in the package EBImage) with matrices containing double values. Let's say I have a matrix 'b' with these values:   > a = c(1.25,1.555,1.245,1.265,1.656,1.235,1.848,1.959,1.548,1.245454,1.989,1.24) > b = matrix(a,4,3) > b       [,1]  [,2]     [,3] [1,] 1.250 1.656 1.548000 [2,] 1.555 1.235 1.245454 [3,] 1.245 1.848

I have a form_remote_tag that calls a method to print out a csv file for download. If I tell the form_remote_tag to update a div the data comes up in that div, but otherwise I can''t get the browser to acknowledge the sent file. >From view: <%= form_remote_tag :url => {:action => "csv_dump" }%> <%= submit_tag "Download Complete List" ,:name
