Are you talking about Carrierwave? If you are then you can try the documentation for it which discusses everything you would like to do.

Hey Bryan i have checked the link which you have given but i am not getting it, like the code i have is already created in Career Wave and i need to change that code and made up for Amazon S3 and have to write the code for rspec

I don’t know of any application called Career Wave. I thought you meant Carrierwave and had misspelled it by accident. The link I sent was for Carrierwave. Sorry for the confusion.

Do you have an Amazon S3 account? Have you loaded the fog gem (https://github.com/geemus/fog) and done the other configurations that Carrierwaves instructions has specified? “You’ll need to provide your fog_credentials and a fog_directory (also known as a bucket) in an initializer. You can also pass in additional options, as documented fully in lib/storage/fog.rb”

Everything is explained right in the documentation. If you installed fog and have an Amazon S3 account to provide as the fog credentials and fog directory then following the below steps in the documentation is easy. From the Carrierwave documentation (https://github.com/jnicklas/carrierwave):

Using Amazon S3

Fog is used to support Amazon S3. Ensure you have it installed:

gem install fog

You’ll need to provide your fog_credentials and a fog_directory (also known as a bucket) in an initializer. You can also pass in additional options, as documented fully in lib/storage/fog.rb. Here’s a full example:

CarrierWave.configure do |config|
      config.fog_credentials = {
        :provider => 'AWS', # required
        :aws_access_key_id => 'xxx', # required

        :aws_secret_access_key => 'yyy', # required
        :region => 'eu-west-1' # optional, defaults to 'us-east-1'
      }
      config.fog_directory = 'name_of_directory' # required

      config.fog_host = '[https://assets.example.com](https://assets.example.com)' # optional, defaults to nil
      config.fog_public = false # optional, defaults to true

      config.fog_attributes = {'Cache-Control'=>'max-age=315576000'} # optional, defaults to {}
    end

In your uploader, set the storage to :fog

class AvatarUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base
      storage :fog
    end

That’s it! You can still use the CarrierWave::Uploader#url method to return the url to the file on Amazon S3.

and i also need to write the rspec test cases for the same…

You will need to write them yourself. That is the job you accepted for the client you are doing the work for. If you have errors in your tests or errors when they run feel free to post the error you are getting to the group for help in debugging.
