Hi, I need to take a single uploaded image file and save three resized versions of it, a thumbnail, normal and large version. I was planning on doing this in my model by having an array of geometry strings and looping through them, each time saving a new image object resized to the correct geometry. I know that file column does similar stuff, but I would prefer to have a separate database row

I am trying to implement the uploading of a file to a remote server I get error while trying to write the file on the server. The error I get is the following: undefined method `rewind'' for #<String:0x2aaaad062eb8> It seems to be treating my file as a string instead of a File object. --------- Code is below ------------------ VIEW: <%=

I submitted this earlier, but the web forums went down and I''ve screwed up the thread, so I''m starting over. I''m trying to built a document upload system. The system has a main Document model with different subclasses for different types of documents. With the code below, if I attempt to create a Document, it works fine, but if I attempt to use one of the subclasses, I

I''m writing a ''Mailman'' model that catches emails sent to my application (kind of like backpack, I think). The trouble is that I''d like to save image attachments in the same was that file_column saves them--in fact, I''d really like to use a simple assignment like photo.image = attachment to save the image in its proper place. However,

I am creating a database for movies (films) and television shows (shows) that will have has_and_belongs_to_many relationships with the pictures table. CREATE TABLE screenshots ( id serial NOT NULL, filename character varying NOT NULL, content_type character varying NOT NULL, primary key (id) ); CREATE TABLE films ( id serial NOT NULL, name character varying NOT NULL,

Where should I look for information on how to use Rails and Ruby to accept the upload of a file and then to save that file to the file system of my server? I''m reading the "Uploading a file" section of Agile Web Dev with Rails, but it''s geared toward saving the file in the database. Any advice? Thanks, Jeff -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi! Today I needed to implement some controller code, that uses send_file() to send image data. How can this be tested / specified with RSpec? bye, Tobias

Hi all, I was wondering about the class used when rails receives file uploads. Sometimes it appears to be a File, and other times it is a StringIO. Also it has methods such as original_filename that don''t appear to belong to either of these classes. I ask because I''m trying to work out how to test my fil upload related models and controllers. Is there some standardised way of

Hi I hope someone can shed some light on this have searched a lot but found nothing definite. This happens on Ubuntu and Fedora 2. I am having a problem with uploading small files (images gif or jpeg under 19k). According to ruby documentation these are stored temporarily as StringIO objects rather than temporary files (as is done with the larger file uploads). The problem is that when it

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/.

So any files that are uploaded through my form are getting the following mode: -rw------- I need them to have: -rw-r--r-- I''ve tried setting the umask in a script file called set_umask.rb as follows: File.umask(022) and then starting mongrel using: mongrel_rails start -m config/mime.types -S set_umask.rb but it doesn''t seem to change the mode that the files are created

I''m pretty much done with a project I''ve been developing to learn Rails, http://www.happycarpools.com . If you could take a look, that''d be awesome! Feedback would be even more awesome! Probably the coolest thing about making this has been seeing how Rails does *so much* and hardly has any superfluous parts, if any. There are so many features that I initially

I did a spike in my sandbox to make sure I understood how to do file uploads using CGI and there seems to be a problem with Mongrel. WEBrick doesn''t display the problem, but I can reproduce it everytime with Mongrel. I''d really appreciate it if someone would try out the code below and see if they see the same thing. The browser behavior is: - under IE6, a Page Not Found error

Hi everyone, I''m having trouble actually running mysql queries. I can connect to the database, I think, but when a query gets run the following shows up in my log: SQL (0.000000) Mysql::Error: Lost connection to MySQL server during query: SHOW TABLES Any suggestions? Thanks! Daniel Higginbotham

Hi All, I''ve been trying to create an upload form page that will take an uploaded file, and save it to a directory on the server. I''ve tried following a couple of posts on this list, and the HowTo from here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/HowtoUploadFiles Here is the code in my view: <%= start_form_tag ( {:action => "upload"}, { :mulipart => true }

I created an integrations test that attempted to uploade a file as follows: def uploaded_file(path, content_type="application/octet-stream", filename=nil) filename ||= File.basename(path) t = Tempfile.new(filename) FileUtils.copy_file(path, t.path) (class << t; self; end;).class_eval do alias local_path path define_method(:original_filename) {

Hi everyone, It seems like every time I want to evaluate a possibly undefined variable I have to use defined? to see that it exists first, so I can''t simply have -- if params[:range_start] > 3 or something like it. I need to have -- if defined? params[:range_start] && params[:range_start] > 3 I can''t even have -- if params[:range_start].nil? This is really

I''m trying to create a document upload system, where most of the code is the super class Document and just the path to file on the system is controlled by the sub classes. When I attempt to use my code, I get the following when I try to save the document. can''t dump anonymous class Class Any ideas? ** Migration ** class CreateDocuments < ActiveRecord::Migration def
