similar to: file_column - filtering uploaded file type and storing image size?

I have a HABTM relationship between my agents and listings tables. Each listing can have many agents and each agent can have many listings. In the agents_listings table I have a column called ''is_primary_agent'' which denotes if the agent is responsible for the listing - only one agent can be primary. At the moment I use this in my listing_controller''s view

I have a model called ProductFiles which associates an arbitrary amount of image and documents with a product. I am using the file_column plugin to manage the upload and storage of the images, like so: class ProductFile < ActiveRecord::Base # Accepted MIME types, mime types that are not part of this list are rejected MIME_EXTENSIONS = { "image/gif" => "gif",

Hi there, Is it possible to use file_column to copy an already uploaded file to another directory? I have a list that displays a whole bunch of uploaded files with radio buttons next to them. Whatever file is selected (and only one file can be selected at a time), the file would then be copied into a different directory.

I''m working on an app right now that uses http://www.kanthak.net/opensource/file_column/index.html Sebastian Kanthak''s file_column plugin for file uploads. The usual directory structure it saves to is: model/attr/id/filename For my current project, I''d like to separate uploads by account so that it''s easier to monitor an account''s resource usage.

Hi, sounds somehow stupid, but I can''t get rid of my files that I uploaded into my application via the file_column plugin. Any suggestions? Cheers Thomas -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Howdy. We use the handy file_column plug-in in some of our apps. We have a model with a file field and we upload both images and non-images into this field. It is specified as follows: file_column :file_uri, :magick => {:versions => {:thumbnail => {:size => ''200x''}}} Well, it works great for images but for non-images, the save fails. The root cause is an

I also posted this on Rails Engines forum. Sorry for the double post. I am trying to configure file_column plugin so that it stores the images in a directory completely outside of RAILS_ROOT. I have no problems in storing the files by setting :root_path option. But I can''t get to display these images using ''url_for_file_column''. What I get instead of the image is

I''m using file_column and I''m not sure where to put code for zipping (compressing) a file. I want to upload an audio file, but compress it as a .zip file before saving. That way I can force downloads rather than having audio files load in visitor browsers. question is: Where do put code to do the zipping, so that it occurs before the file is saved? I want the database entry to

I''ve been using file_column for a while and it''s the best thing since sliced bread. But there''s one thing that it doesn''t do that seems like it''d be a pretty useful feature. For an app I''m working on I really need to know the dimensions of the store image in my view (and in general it''s always good to have the dimensions in your

i want to upload and resize images so i installed the file_column plugin but im having a big trouble, i have a table images with (id, name) fields where the images names/path will be stored, i get a success message(from the controller after @art_image.save) every time i try to upload but only a blank directory its created /public/image/name/tmp , without errors messages, i see a post related

Hi Guys, Does anyone know how to restrict access on files that you upload in file column to certain users only? I notice that files being saved by the file_column by default are being saved under the public folder and can be accessed just by typing the URL directly. Let''s say you have a Login system where you restrict access to some pages and allow those users to upload their own

Hello, Is it possible to enforce minimum image size and other validations using file_column? if so does anybody have some examples. I have looked at Kyle''s file_column extension and I saw that it enforces format''s (jpg,pdf etc) but nothing for size. Thanks!

hello, i''ve added version "small" => {:size => "320x240>"} to file_column. But it doesnt create that size image. How to tell file_column to create small image if it doesn''t exist? Thank you -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I would like to create versions of images uploaded to a model that has a file_column but only if the file is a image. file_column :file, :magick => { :versions => {"thumb" => "64x64"}} If I upload a txt file this will give me an error of "File invalid image".

Hi, I have included the use of file_column in my app and it works great. I noticed that by default this plugin doesn''t account for image width and height attributes. I take it that most developers using this plugin are simply not recording or outputting this meta data so that the browser is basing the page rendering on the actual sizes of the embedded images rather than width

I was looking at Kyle Mawell''s extremely nifty-looking StateModels plugin http://www.kylemaxwell.com/articles/2006/02/06/fun-with-single-table-inheritance and before I go down the road with it, I was wondering if anyone has used it with file_column. The way file_column deals with an uploaded file -- by storing it to the filesystem in a path that employs the model name and id --

Hello, I had a problem cropping images with file_column. These are my settings: file_column :image, :magick => { :versions => { :thumb => "80x80>", :medium => "150x150>", :square => { :crop => "1:1", :size => "50x50!" } },

Dear all, file_column now works fine with object.save i.e., it updates my database field with the correct image file name and places the image file into the correct public folder. However, I cannot get file_column to work the same way with object.update when trying to change image. It only updates my field with the image file name. However, the new image is not copied into the correct

this is getting frustrating... i installed file_column without a hitch for the first time to just play around with. using the exact same steps as before, i try to use it with one of my actual applications, and i get "permission denied" errors. i figure there might be some conflict with my application so just for kicks i do the exact same thing i did the first time to test
