Instance Method Details

#attachment(name, cache: :cache, store: :store, raise_errors: true, type: nil, extension: nil, content_type: nil)

This method returns an undefined value.

Macro which generates accessors for the given column which make it possible to upload and retrieve previously uploaded files through the generated accessors.

The raise_errors option controls whether assigning an invalid file should immediately raise an error, or save the error and defer handling it until later.

Given a record with an attachment named image, the following methods will be added:

  • image
  • image=
  • remove_image
  • remove_image=
  • remote_image_url
  • remote_image_url=

Examples:

class User
  extends Refile::Attachment

  attachment :image
  attr_accessor :image_id
end

Parameters:

  • name (String)

    Name of the column which accessor are generated for

  • cache (#to_s) (defaults to: :cache)

    Name of a backend in Refile.backends to use as transient cache

  • store (#to_s) (defaults to: :store)

    Name of a backend in Refile.backends to use as permanent store

  • raise_errors (true, false) (defaults to: true)

    Whether to raise errors in case an invalid file is assigned

  • type (Symbol, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    The type of file that can be uploaded, see Refile.types

  • extension (String, Array<String>, nil) (defaults to: nil)

    Limit the uploaded file to the given extension or list of extensions

  • content_type (String, Array<String>, nil) (defaults to: nil)
