Hello!
I've been trying today to setup fleximage to handle photo uploads to a
RoR application by following the tutorial that is provided
(http://github.com/Squeegy/fleximage/wikis/gettingstarted)
Originally, I just dropped in all of the sample code that they provided,
which I copied below this question.
- When I tried to access "new" to upload a new photo, I received an
error of "Called id for nil, which would mistakenly be 4 -- if you
really wanted the id of nil, use object_id", which I understood to be
caused by the fact that I was using @photo without initializing it in
the controller.
- I added @photo = Photo.new to the controller for "new" but then it
returned that it could not find the table Photo.
- I created a new migration for a photo table, including only the fields
for name and author, which are also requested in the provided "new"
view.
- Now, it just returns the error "undefined method `photos_path' for
#<ActionView::Base:0x230ee70>"
Since I'm incredibly new to fleximage, I'm not exactly sure if I'm going
in the wrong direction with my troubleshooting, if a table even needed
to be created for the photos or what my next step should be.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. :)
Model (photo.rb)
class Photo < ActiveRecord::Base
acts_as_fleximage :image_directory => 'public/images/uploaded_photos'
end
Controller (photos_controller.rb)
class PhotosController < ApplicationController
def new
end
def create
@photo = Photo.new(params[:photo])
if @photo.save
redirect_to photo_url(@photo)
else
flash[:notice] = 'Your photo did not pass validation!'
render :action => 'new'
end
end
end
View (new.html.erb)
<% form_for @photo, :html => { :multipart => true } do |f| %>
<p>
<b>Name</b><br />
<%= f.text_field :name %>
</p>
<p>
<b>Author</b><br />
<%= f.text_field :author %>
</p>
<p>
<b>Upload Image</b><br />
<%= f.file_field :image_file %><br />
or URL: <%= f.text_field :image_file_url %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.submit "Create" %>
</p>
<% end %>
