Rails 5.2 Active Storage purging/deleting attachments

Question

So I\'m using Active Storage to upload multiple images attached to a Collection model. Everything works well except whenever I\'m trying to purge/delete a single attachment

Answer 1

The following didn't work for me.

def delete_image_attachment
  @image = ActiveStorage::Blob.find_signed(params[:id])
  @image.purge
  redirect_to collections_url
end

So what i did is found the attachment and purged it. You can do purge_later which is recommended.

def delete_image_attachment
  @image = ActiveStorage::Blob.find_signed(params[:id])
  @image.attachments.first.purge
  redirect_to collections_url
end

This removed both attachment and blob record.
