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

Hi, I am using paperclip to upload files. The problem I am facing is, based on my object property I need to preserve my file. Means my object should be deleted from db but the file need to be restored. I am using the option :preserve_files => true.

I would need to be able to upload images to an external URL I know S3 is an option but there are better image hosts out there for my requirements and one in particular I would like to make use of.
