MogileFS Storage for Paperclip

Store files uploaded with Paperclip in MogileFS storage system (http://www.danga.com/mogilefs/)

Requirements

This plugin depends on mogilefs-client gem (http://seattlerb.rubyforge.org/mogilefs-client/) and Thoughtbot's Paperclip gem/plugin (http://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip)

Usage

1) Set default Paperclip storage in your environment.rb file:

Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
  ...

  config.after_initialize do
    Paperclip::Attachment.default_options.merge!(:storage => :mogilefs)
  end
end

2) Add config/mogilefs.yml file with configuration:

development:
  connection:
    domain: "my-development-domain.com"
    hosts:
      - 192.168.0.1:6001
  class: "file"

production:
  connection:
    domain: "my-production-domain.com"
    hosts:
      - 12.34.56.78:6001
  class: "myclass"

3) Profit! :)

You can also use MogileFS only for certain attachments. In this case you should define storage directly in your model, not in the environment.rb file. MogileFS class can be also defined directly in the attachment definition (class "file" is used by default):

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_attached_file :avatar,
    :styles => {:small => "100x100>"}

  has_attached_file :photo,
    :styles   => {:normal => "600x600>"},
    :storage  => :mogilefs,
    :mogilefs => {:class => "photo"}
end

Testing

No tests yet :( You can fork this plugin at GitHub (http://github.com/dekart/paperclip_mogilefs_storage) and add your own tests. I'll be happy to accept patches!

Installing the plugin

./script/plugin install git://github.com/dekart/paperclip_mogilefs_storage.git
