Save a picture in S3 from a temporary URL

问题

I am developing a website on ruby on rails where users can upload pictures thanks to paperclip, it is stored in amazon S3. After, they can modify pictures thanks to aviary. But when i want to save the new pictures, aviary just gave me an temporary URL where i can get my modified picture.

Does paperclip can do it ? I don't think it can save an picture from an URL and store it to S3 ?

I've searched for a week now, and i don't know the best way to do it. I've read about filepicker, but the account to store data in S3 files isn't free ...

Finally i've heard about this s3 https://github.com/qoobaa/s3, but i don't understand how to use it. I have installed gem s3, but when i set require 's3' , it is not recognize.

What is the best to do?

Why don't you pass the URL that Aviary generates to your server and upload the new photo from there? The code below does that in Python/Django:

@login_required    
@csrf_exempt
def upload_from_url(request):
    origin_url = request.POST.get("origin_url")
    name = request.POST.get("name")

    try:
        conn = boto.connect_s3(settings.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, settings.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
        bucket_name = settings.AWS_UGC_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
        bucket = conn.get_bucket(bucket_name)
        k = Key(bucket)

        k.key = name   
        file_object = urllib2.urlopen(origin_url)
        fp = StringIO.StringIO(file_object.read())
        k.set_contents_from_file(fp)

        return HttpResponse("Success")
    except Exception, e:
        return HttpResponse(e, mimetype='application/javascript')

Hope this helps.

Paperclip has matured a lot since this question was answered. If you want to save files by passing a URL, as of Paperclip v3.1.4, you can just assign the URL to your Paperclip attachment attribute.

Let's say I have a class User and my attachment is called avatar. We'll have the following in our User model:

has_attached_file :avatar

# Validate the attached image is image/jpg, image/png, etc
# This is required by later releases of Paperclip
validates_attachment_content_type :avatar, :content_type => /\Aimage\/.*\Z/

In our view, we can define a hidden field that will accept the temporary URL received from Aviary:

= f.hidden_field :avatar, id: 'avatar'

We can set the value of this hidden field with the Aviary onSave callback:

var featherEditor = new Aviary.Feather({
  apiKey: '#{ENV['AVIARY_KEY']}',
  onSave: function(imageID, newURL) {
    var img = document.getElementById(imageID);
    img.src = newURL;

    var avatar = document.getElementById('avatar');
    avatar.value = newURL;
    featherEditor.close();
  }
});

Within onSave, you can use AJAX to update the User object, use jQuery's .submit() to submit the form, or let the user submit it when they want.
