I thought I found how to post a file to my controller for PaperClip attachment processing , but I am stuck with the the RestClient processing
I am creating the file from the email attachment : file = StringIO.new(part.decoded) file.class.class_eval { attr_accessor :original_filename, :content_type } file.original_filename = part.filename file.content_type = part.mime_type
# then adding some parameters fields_hash = {:clip => {:description => "uploaded file", :name => 'test', :file => file }, :email_upload => true}
# setting the url => "http://localhost:3000/en_GB/users/clips" @url = "http://#{Rails.configuration.host}/#{locale}/users/clips"
# and finally sending the request response = RestClient.post @url , fields_hash
and I get RestClient::Found Exception: 302 Found
what could be wrong ?
the form used in the clip create action is
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" action="http://localhost:3000/en_GB/users/ clips" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"> <input id="clip_name" name="clip[name]" size="30"" type="text"> <textarea cols="24" id="clip_description" name="clip[description]" rows="5"></textarea> <input id="clip_data" name="clip[data]" " type="file"> <input id="swing_submit" name="commit" type="submit" value="Upload"> </form>
