S3asy

Rails gem for associating an s3 object with an active record model

Install

gem install robertoles-s3asy --source http://gems.github.com

Usage

You want to create an active record model ‘product’ which has an attribute ‘image’ which is an s3 object. First create a migration for your model and specify a string column for the image attribute followed by _name…

class CreateProducts < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table :products do |t|
      t.string :image_name

      t.timestamps
    end
  end

  def self.down
    drop_table :products
  end
end

Now you will need to specify your s3 credentials, to do this add the file /config/amazon_s3.yml

test:
  access_key_id: your_access_key_id
  secret_access_key: your_secret_access_key

Finally create the association in your model, specifying the bucket on s3 the object is stored in…

class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_s3object :image, :bucket => 'bucket'
end
