paperclip

I was wondering if there was an easy way e.g. a plugin, to do ajax uploading in rails with paperclip or am I going to have to build it from scratch? Cheers! Edit: Also, I'm looking for a non-flash solution. You can try remotipart ( http://os.alfajango.com/remotipart ). It's a gem fine integrated with Rails 3.1 and 3.0. I have tried it, and all the ajax-file-upload handled like magic. maxiperez I had this problem. Perhaps my solution is your solution Problem paperclip with ajax EDIT: You'll find two versions of ajax upload on https://github.com/apneadiving/Pic-upload---Crop-in-Ajax . Branch

I'm trying to find the best way to make paperclip urls secure, but only for secure pages. For instance, the homepage, which shows images stored in S3, is http://mydomain.com and the image url is http://s3.amazonaws.com/mydomainphotos/89/thisimage.JPG?1284314856 . I have secure pages like https://mydomain.com/users/my_stuff/49 that has images stored in S3, but the S3 protocol is http and not https, so the user gets a warning from the browser saying that some elements on the page are not secure, blah blah blah. I know that I can specify :s3_protocol in the model, but this makes everything secure

I'm using Thoughtbot's Paperclip gem to handle file uploads. I'm finding that when I upload a file with spaces in the filename, it gets stored with the spaces replaced with underscores. That's good. I also tried uploading a file with special characters like ~ and so on and they all got replaced with underscores. Great. Exactly what I want. But why is it happening? All I'm doing in my model is... has_attached_file( file_somefile, :path => ":rails_root/public/system/other/path/elements/:basename.:extension" ) Is this Paperclip's default behavior? To add a little more information, this happens in

I would like to read the geometry of a photo off of my S3 container. When it's on my local, this works : def photo_geometry(style = :original) @geometry ||= {} @geometry[style] ||= Paperclip::Geometry.from_file photo.path(style) end But it doesn't seem to work when I switch my model over to S3.. Any recommendations? The bigger story, is I'm trying to write some code that will allow me to retrieve photos from S3, allow users to crop them, and then reupload them back to S3 still assigned by paperclip. EDIT: This is the error that is returned : Paperclip::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError: photos

I have been banging my head against this for several days. Recently, my image uploader has stopped working properly. I have investigated several possibilities, but have none of the suggested solutions have worked in my case. The error message is: #<Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError:Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError> Here are the details: Mac OS X 10.8.3 ImageMagick 6.8.4-4 2013-03-29 libtool => /usr/bin/libtool Rails 3.2.13 Ruby 1.9.3p194 development.rb contains appropriate path (and I have verified that it is correct using which identify ) Paperclip.options[

I am currently using paperclip to upload images to my rails app. This is probably a very simple fix but how or where do I save the missing images to? This is the error that is produced from not having any missing images. How do I change this? ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches "/photos/normal/missing.png"): DanneManne If you don't need any control over the default image, which I don't think you need, you can place it in any folder under RAILS_ROOT/public/images/ Just make sure you point it out in the attachment model with the :default_url parameter . So for example if you place

I want to upload images on my local machine for development but store them on my Amazon S3 account for production. upload.rb if Rails.env.development? has_attached_file :photo, :styles => { :thumb => '40x40#', :medium => '150x200>', :large => '300x300>'}, :convert_options => { :thumb => "-quality 92", :medium => "-quality 92", :large => "-quality 92" }, :processors => [:cropper] else has_attached_file :photo, :styles => { :thumb => '40x40#', :medium => '150x200>', :large => '300x300>'}, :convert_options => { :thumb => "-quality 92", :medium => "-quality 92", :large => "-quality 92" }, :storage

Using rails 4, and trying to add a file field to an existing form, using simple_form and paperclip. Here's the critical part of the form: <%= simple_form_for(@employee, html: { class: 'form-horizontal requires', multipart: true}, remote: true) do |f| %> <%= f.input :avatar %> <% end %> Everything works ok, unless I actually submit the form with an uploaded file. Then, I get this: ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken in EmployeesController#update What am I doing wrong here? The simplest solution would just be to add authenticity_token: true to your form. Like this: <%= form_for @employee,
