File Column installation

wborgon · December 3, 2005, 8:52pm

I’ve installed File-column – placed into vendor plugins directory,
added the model, added a controller, and created a view with submit
form. Yet, when I view the page, everything looks correct, but when
submitting the file, nothing is actually stored in the database – and
there are no errors reported.

Am I missing something?

Sample upload view follows:
<%= form_tag({}, { :multipart => true}) %>
<%= file_column_field “entry”, “image” %>
<%= submit_tag ‘Upload’ %>
<%= end_form_tag %>

Model:
class Entry < ActiveRecord::Base
file_column :image
end

Controller:
class EntryController < ApplicationController
end

Database:
CREATE TABLE entries (
id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
image varchar(200) default NULL,
file varchar(200) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)

Thanks

What action does the form submit to?

You need an action that creates an instance, populates it from the form
and
then saves it. Maybe you have one already and didnÂ¹t include it here?

You’re right, the action is missing. I thought between the view, the
model, and the plugin, the neceesary ops would have been taken care of.
Would would be a suitable action?

File column simply makes dealing with files easier. If you want to do
database access of any kind with ActiveRecord, you still need to save
the
object.

def create
    @instance = MyModel.new(params[:instance_form_name])
    if @ instance .save
        redirect_to :action => 'index'
    else
        #error occurred
        render :action => 'index'
    end
end

Or something like that.

So taking the filecolumn example of model Entry, with filecolumn image,
the second line in your example would be:
@entry = Entry.new(params[:entry])
?

Looking at the example, that seems to be correct.

If this stuff isnÂ¹t familiar to you I would suggest going through one of
the
many Rails tutorials out there Â this stuff should be covered in just
about
any basic tutorial.
