nevermind found this lurking in the documentation... i suppose i
should have read it better before looking else where... ;-(
#!/usr/bin/env ./script/runner
# required to use ActionController::TestUploadedFile
require 'action_controller'
require 'action_controller/test_process.rb'
path = "./public/images/x.jpg"
# mimetype is a string like "image/jpeg". One way to get the mimetype
for a given file on a UNIX system
# mimetype = `file -ib #{path}`.gsub(/\n/,"")
mimetype = "image/jpeg"
# This will "upload" the file at path and create the new model.
@attachable = AttachmentMetadataModel.new(:uploaded_data =>
ActionController::TestUploadedFile.new(path, mimetype))
@attachable.save
