Jean-David,
Here's a bit of code from an old project of mine:
def update
data = params[:product].delete('data') # HashWithIndifferentAccess still
needs the actual key type to .delete
begin
@product = Product.find(params[:id], :conditions => { :virtual => true })
unless data.blank? # i.e., not replacing image
content = data.read
if content.blank?
flash[:error] = "Selected upload file was empty"
redirect_to :action => 'edit'
return
end
@product.image_size = ImageSizer.of_blob(content).size
filename = Product.get_local_image_name data.original_filename
File.open(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, 'public', filename), 'wb') do |f|
f.write content
end
@product.image = filename
end
respond_to do |format|
if @product.update_attributes(params[:product])
…
end
Note that I am removing the 'data' key from the attributes hash
params[:product] so that it isn't used in the .update_attributes call later.
Perhaps you need to remove the 'illustration' since you've already handled that
portion of the update.
If you know that the illustration is changed, but ActiveRecord doesn't, then
perhaps you need to call @lead.illustration_will_change! to inform AR that the
attribute is dirty and needs to be written out.
