Easy way to do ajax uploading with paperclip in rails?

Question

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.

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

I had this problem.

Perhaps my solution is your solution

Answer 3

EDIT:

You'll find two versions of ajax upload on https://github.com/apneadiving/Pic-upload---Crop-in-Ajax.

Branch master: it uses http://aquantum-demo.appspot.com/file-upload

Branch uploadify: It uses Uploadify: http://www.uploadify.com/

Both have built-in Crop.

Answer 4

For now I think the answer to this is no. I went with the good old iframe faux-ajax upload, I think we're stuck with this until all the browser support the nice new html uploading.
