Can anyone point me to a howto that shows the absolute minimum needed
for file uploads to a database binary column using native RoR? I've
googled around, and all the results seem to be about plugins like
paperclip or attachment_fu, or complex examples that don't seem to
address a very basic need.
I currently have a schema with:
create_table "attachments", :force => true do |t|
t.integer "user_id"
t.integer "property_id"
t.binary "file"
t.datetime "created_at"
t.datetime "updated_at"
end
and a scaffolded controller with a view containing:
<% form_for @attachment, :html => {:multipart => true} do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>
<!-- other stuff snipped -->
<%= f.label :file %><br />
<%= f.file_field :file %>
</p>
<p>
<%= f.submit 'Create' %>
</p>
<% end %>
Uploading a file tells me:
NoMethodError in AttachmentsController#create
private method `gsub' called for
#<File:/tmp/RackMultipart20091116-1557-wrrxpn-0>
but I can't find *any* useful documentation as to what needs to go into
the create action to pull it all together. I don't want to do anything
complicated; I just want to store the binary in the database for later
retrieval.
