Given other both paid and free uploading tools available, JackUp has been deprecated.
Modify your Gemfile:
gem 'jack_up'and run bundle install from your shell.
Modify your application.js manifest:
//= require jquery
//= require underscore
//= require jack_up
//= require_tree .Rails 4.0+, CoffeeScript, and both jQuery and
Underscore.js included in your application.js manifest.
Create a JackUp.Processor, binding to various events emitted.
$ -> # when the document is ready
# create a new processor with the endpoint to where your assets are uploaded
jackUp = new JackUp.Processor(path: '/assets')
# called if upload is an image; returns an image jQuery object with src attribute assigned
jackUp.on 'upload:imageRenderReady', (e, options) ->
# assigns a data-attribute with the file guid for later referencing
# set the border color to red, denoting that the image is still being uploaded
options.image.attr("data-id", options.file.__guid__).css(border: "5px solid red")
$('.file-drop').append(options.image)
# upload has been sent to server; server will handle processing
jackUp.on "upload:sentToServer", (e, options) ->
# change the border color to yellow to signify successful upload (server is still processing)
$("img[data-id='#{options.file.__guid__}']").css borderColor: 'yellow'
# when server responds successfully
jackUp.on "upload:success", (e, options) ->
# server has completed processing the image and has returned a response
$("img[data-id='#{options.file.__guid__}']").css(borderColor: "green")
# when server returns a non-200 response
jackUp.on "upload:failure", (e, options) ->
# alert the file name
alert("'#{options.file.name}' upload failed; please retry")
# remove the image from the dom since the upload failed
$("img[data-id='#{options.file.__guid__}']").remove()
Once the processor is set up, wire up drag-and-drop support:
$('.file-drop').jackUpDragAndDrop(jackUp)
# if you do not want the browser to redirect to the file when droped anywhere else on the page
$(document).bind 'drop dragover', (e) ->
e.preventDefault()If you just want to bind to a standard <input type='file'>:
$('.standard-attachment').jackUpAjax(jackUp)You can use both at the same time, referencing the same JackUp.Processor, in
order to provide both options to your users.
For instant file uploading:
# Gemfile
gem 'rails'
gem 'paperclip'
gem 'rack-raw-upload'Using the rack-raw-upload gem allows for accessing the file posted to the
controller via params[:file]; this makes it incredibly easy to handle file
uploads.
# app/models/asset.rb
class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base
has_attached_file :photo
end
# app/controllers/assets_controller.rb
class AssetsController < ApplicationController
def create
@asset = Asset.new(photo: asset_params[:file])
if @asset.save
render json: @asset
else
head :bad_request
end
end
private
def asset_params
params.permit(:file)
end
endThis view code could be placed anywhere for immediate uploading:
.file-drop
%span{ 'data-placeholder' => 'Drop files here' } Drop files here
%input.standard-attachment{ name: 'standard_attachment', accept: 'image/*', type: :file, multiple: :multiple }Anything with a data-placeholder attribute will be hidden when an file is successfully dropped.
If attaching assets to a different model, additionally use:
# app/models/post.rb
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :assets, dependent: :destroy
accepts_nested_attributes_for :assets
end
# app/controllers/posts_controller.rb
class PostsController < ApplicationController
def new
@post = Post.new
@post.assets.build
end
def create
@post = Post.new(post_params)
@post.save
respond_with @post
end
private
def post_params
params.require(:post).permit(:asset_ids, :assets_attributes)
end
endTo wire up the posts view:
# app/views/posts/new.html.haml
= form_for @post, html: { multipart: true } do |form|
= form.text_field :title, { placeholder: 'Title' }
.file-drop
%span{ 'data-placeholder' => 'Drop files here' } Drop files here
%input.standard-attachment{ name: 'standard_attachment', accept: "image/*", type: :file, multiple: :multiple }
= form.submit 'Create Post'# app/assets/javascripts/posts.coffee
# truncated from above to demonstrate additional code to associate uploads
# with posts
jackUp.on "upload:success", (e, options) ->
$("img[data-id='#{options.file.__guid__}']").css(borderColor: "green")
# read the response from the server
asset = JSON.parse(options.responseText)
assetId = asset.id
# create a hidden input containing the asset id of the uploaded file
assetIdsElement = $("<input type='hidden' name='post[asset_ids][]'>").val(assetId)
# append it to the form so saving the form associates the created post
# with the uploaded assets
$(".file-drop").parent("form").append(assetIdsElement)JackUp is copyright 2012-2013 Josh Steiner, Josh Clayton, and thoughtbot, inc., and may be redistributed under the terms specified in the LICENSE file.
