Hello,
For anyone who might stumble upon the following problem:
In my unit test, I'm checking if the deletion of a Paperclip attachment on
my model actually works. However, when I call Object.save, my file is
deleted from disk! You don't want this to happen in a test environment.
Inspired by some ideas on the interwebz, (specifically on the Stack Overflow
site) I created this monkey patch.
lib/paperclip_monkey_patch.rb:
# -*- encoding : utf-8 -*-
# Only in test mode do we prevent Paperclip from deleting attachments on
disk
module Paperclip
class Attachment
def clear
# nop
#raise "hell"
# op
instance_write(:file_name, nil)
instance_write(:content_type, nil)
instance_write(:file_size, nil)
instance_write(:updated_at, nil)
end
end
end
Then add this line at the top of any test file that deleted attachments:
require 'paperclip_monkey_patch'
Now, when your attachments are deleted, the file they point to is not
deleted by Paperclip.
All the best,
CmdJohnson
