I'm working on a project that requires an ActiveStorage
has_many_attached :photos
situation on a Location
model.
I have the code set up below, but when attempting to upload a form, I receive the following error:
ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature in
LocationsController#attach_photo
Is this the way to "add" a file to the set of attachments for a particular parent record (i.e: a Location
record)?
Location
Modelclass Location < ApplicationRecord
...
has_many_attached :photos
...
end
class LocationsController < ApplicationController
...
def attach_photo
@location = Location.find(params[:id])
@location.photos.attach(params[:photo])
redirect_to location_path(@location)
end
...
end
<%= form_tag attach_photo_location_path(@location) do %>
<%= label_tag :photo %>
<%= file_field_tag :photo %>
<%= submit_tag "Upload" %>
<% end %>
resources :locations do
member do
post :attach_photo
end
end
Make sure to add multipart: true
in form_tag
. It generates enctype="multipart/form-data"
.
form_tag
by default not responsible for it, must have it (if attaching a file).
multipart/form-data No characters are encoded. This value is required when you are using forms that have a file upload control
Form:
<%= form_tag attach_photo_location_path(@location), method: :put, multipart: true do %>
<%= label_tag :photo %>
<%= file_field_tag :photo %>
<%= submit_tag "Upload" %>
<% end %>
Also:
Change post
to put
method, We are updating not creating Idempotency
resources :locations do
member do
put :attach_photo
end
end
