Are you trying to assign these attributes after the file is uploaded, or at the same time that you upload it? I usually follow this pattern (pseudocode!!): class Article < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :images, :dependent => :destroy accepts_nested_attributes_for :images ... end class Image < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :article ... end Image can have all the unique attributes -- filename, uuid, whatever else is needed by your chosen attachment library (Dragonfly, Paperclip, CarrierWave) along with the category, caption, anything else you need in your application. Using Ryan Bates' nested_form Action, you can add as many of these as you want at the time you create or edit the parent object. I recommend a quick view of the associated RailsCast: http://railscasts.com/episodes/196-nested-model-form-part-1 and http://railscasts.com/episodes/197-nested-model-form-part-2 The upshot of this construction is that you can attach as many rich (decorated) children to the parent as you need, and each one will be fully populated in a single form submission. You won't need to come back and edit the children to add the metadata to the file later (although you can if you really want to).
