paperclip

How do I create paths with paperclip when using Amazon S3? My directory on my bucket is: /image/:id/:filename My model: has_attached_file :image, :storage => :s3, :bucket => 'mybucket', :s3_credentials => { :access_key_id => ENV['S3_KEY'], :secret_access_key => ENV['S3_SECRET'] } Try this: has_attached_file :image, :storage => :s3, :bucket => 'mybucket', :path => "/image/:id/:filename", :s3_credentials => { :access_key_id => ENV['S3_KEY'], :secret_access_key => ENV['S3_SECRET'] } I wrote a post about it a few months back. I also wrote about how you can add properties from the class, for

Let's says I have the following entry in my seeds.rb file : Image.create(:id => 52, :asset_file_name => "somefile.jpg", :asset_file_size => 101668, :asset_content_type => "image/jpeg", :product_id => 52) If I seed it, it tries to process the image specified, I get this error : No such file or directory - {file path} etc... My images are backed up, so I don't really need to create them; but I need the record though. I can't comment the paperclip directive in my model; then it works; but I guess there might be another solution. Is there another pattern to follow in order to accomplish it ? Or a

When I try to upload image using Paperclip gem I got this error: NoMethodError (undefined method `stringify_keys' for <ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile:0x000000025387f0>) class MenuItem < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :image end class Image < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :menu_item has_attached_file :image, :styles => { :large => "640x480", :medium => "300x300", :thumb => "100x100" } end I've seen this error happen before, usually when people attempt to call update_attributes like this: update_attributes(params[:image]) The call should actually be this: update_attributes(:image => params[

I am using Paperclip to upload an image to my Project model and I want to have an array of default images (not depending on the style, but different images) is that posible? To pass an array instead of just one URL to the :default_url option? Thank you, Nicolás Hock Isaza So close: If you want the images to change randomly, and not just on first load of the model: :default_url => lambda { "path/to/images/#{rand(5)}.jpg" } Putting rand(5) in the default_url proc will assign a random image every time a new model object is created. If you want the images to be randomly assigned and that each

I have a FactoryGirl :product factory that uses fixture_file_upload to set image , which is a Paperclip attachment. image { fixture_file_upload "#{Rails.root}/spec/fixtures/images/product.png", 'image/png' } fixture_file_upload works fine, but every time a test creates a new Product using the factory, Paperclip creates a new file in publicproducts/<id>/original.png . This is the issue. . Filling a the folder publicproducts on each test run is not acceptable. The first workaround I can think of is the solution mentioned in https://github.com/carrierwaveuploader/carrierwave/wiki/How-to:-Cleanup

I'm using paperclip to manage uploads, backed onto S3 via Fog. It works well. I'm trying to take attachments out of emails and save them via paperclip (using the same model etc). Email are parsed by an external service and POSTed to my app, including the attachments. I'm receiving the file itself fine, but I can't work out how to save it using paperclip. The post gives me an object of type ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile . I took a look at the below, but this involves creating a new File object. I'm not sure this is what I want... How should I do it? Saving files using Paperclip without

How can I generate the first page of a pdf as a thumbnail in paperclip? I tried a lot but it's not working has_attached_file :book_url, :styles => { :thumb => "100x100#", :small => "150x150>", :medium => "200x200" } This is giving the name of the pdf as a link but it's not giving the first page of the pdf <%= link_to 'My PDF', @book.book_url.url %> Tadas' answer is right, but for those who need more context, you can do something like this: The model below only creates thumbnails for certain kinds of files (e.g. it doesn't make thumbnails of audio files), but does make thumbnails for pdfs,
