def cache_dir
  # should return path to cache dir
  Rails.root.join 'tmp/uploads'
end

#extension_white_listObject

Add a white list of extensions which are allowed to be uploaded. For photos you might use something like this:



51

# File 'app/uploaders/photo_uploader.rb', line 51

def extension_white_list
  %w(jpg jpeg png)
end

#store_dirObject

Override the directory where uploaded files will be stored. This is a sensible default for uploaders that are meant to be mounted:

# File 'app/uploaders/photo_uploader.rb', line 19

def store_dir
  # "uploads/#{model.class.to_s.underscore}/#{mounted_as}/#{model.id}"  --- that was the suggested one
  "system/photos/#{model.class.to_s.underscore}/#{model.id}"
end
