Instance Method Details

#tmpfile(path = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

tmpfile(“xx.jpg”) do |dest|

Net.download("http://xx.yy.zz/a.jpg", dest)

end

the block gets the temp file name, which is guaranteed to be unique amongst all running processes.

If the path parameter is set the temporary file will be fastcopied to that output file.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)
