I tried using ActionController::UploadedStringIO.new( data ) and it does create the files... but the images don't work.
Is data supposed to be the filepath? ie. photos/joe.jpg ? I also found an example of exactly what I want to do in the Practical Rails Plugins book, but which is outdated using "temp_data =" It looks simple and perfect, what am I missing? http://books.google.com/books?id=c1L4IzmUzicC&pg=PA49&lpg=PA49&dq=attachment+fu+console+creation&source=bl&ots=0LhR2tApt6&sig=Kufto1uWSuhThKpy-dzVCzybKOI&hl=en&ei=Ca4iSoHZBMyOsAa36NC3Bg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1 On May 31, 11:22 pm, Maurício Linhares <[email protected]> wrote: > Here's how I'm doing it: > > file = ActionController::UploadedStringIO.new( data ) #this is > the real data > file.instance_variable_set( '@original_filename', > "#{rand(1000)}_#{filename}" ) > file.content_type = i.content_type > > i.uploaded_data=( file ) > i.save! > > - > Maurício Linhareshttp://alinhavado.wordpress.com/(pt-br) > |http://blog.codevader.com/(en) > > On Sun, May 31, 2009 at 5:52 PM, holden <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Something like this almost work... > > > Discussion.new > > (:name=>"test2", :location_id=>"1036", :image_attributes=> > > [{ :uploaded_data=> File.new("/Users/holden/Desktop/pictures/ > > LionsFW.jpg") }], :website=>"testdsfdf", :geo=>"", :phone=>"test", > > :blurb=>"testdsfsdfsdf", :address=>"test", :hwID=>"test", > > :email=>"[email protected]") > > > undefined method `[]' for #<File:/Users/holden/Desktop/pictures/ > > LionsFW.jpg > > > On May 31, 6:36 pm, holden <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I'm trying to use attachment fu to add a large number of images at > >> once using a script but i can't even get it to add an image from the > >> console... the other documentation i've found no longer seems to work. > > >> Something like this doesn't work properly > > >> c = Image.new > >> c.content_type = 'image/jpeg' > >> c.filename = 'test.jpg' > >> c.discussion_id = 7330 > >> c.uploaded_data = File.open('/Users/holden/Desktop/pictures/ > >> LionsFW.jpg') > >> c.save > > >> It does save.. but the file doesn't get populated. > > >> All the previous documentatio circa 2007 says :temp_file but this is > >> no longer available to i tried switching it to :uploaded_data, but > >> that doesn't seem to work either.... > > >> also it want's the size and is a required field, but shouldn't this be > >> automatically deduced.. providing it doesn't help either... > > >> Any suggestions would be a great help, > > >> Thanks, > > >> holden --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
