FlashS3Rails

Upload files to s3 with flash, including progress bars, in your Rails app. Configuration requires an s3 key and secret only.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'flash_s3_rails', '~> 0.0.1.beta1', :require => 'flash_s3'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install flash_s3_rails --pre

config.flash_s3.bucket = 'mybucketname'
config.flash_s3.s3_access_key_id = "myaccesskey"
config.flash_s3.s3_secret_access_key = "mysecretaccesskey"

add_column :<your_model_name_pluralized>, :<your_attachment_name>_s3_key :string

e.g.

add_column :videos, :media_s3_key, :string

Let's say it's called Video.

has_attached_s3_file :media

Substitute your upload name for media.

//= require jquery.ui.all
//= require jquery.flashS3

/*
 *= require jquery.flashS3
 */

<%= flash_s3_uploader @video, :media, post_upload_callback_url  %>

= flash_s3_uploader @video, :media, post_upload_callback_url

Note: You must use the url and not the path for your post callback hook.

def create
  @video = Video.new(params[:video])
  @video.save!
  head :ok
end

Or whatever ;) The point is to new, create, update_attributes, etc, your Model instance with the attachment_s3_key column and has_attached_s3_file and save it! Your s3_key will be saved automagically.

• Additional custom post callback params
• More configurable, e.g. max file size, file type(s) accepted
• Drop jquery-ui dependency and implement a simple css progress bar
• Make the green box a little less ugly ;)
