UploadStore

Rails is terrible at streaming uploaded files. So, move that upload handling to what ever file store your already using and rely on ruby to handle the processing.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'upload-store'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install upload-store

Config

require 'upload_store'

if %w(staging production).include?(Rails.env)
  UploadStore.configure do |config|
    config.provider   = 'AWS'
    config.directory  = 'my-bucket-name'
    config.path       = 'directory-for-everyone'

    # AWS configs
    access_key_id:    = ENV['AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID']
    secret_access_key = ENV['AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY']
  end
else
  UploadStore.configure do |config|
    config.provider   = 'Local'
    config.directory  = 'upload-store-unit-tests'
    config.path       = 'directory-for-everyone'

    # Local configs
    config.local_root = Rails.root.join('tmp')
    config.url        = 'http://localhost:3000/uploads'
  end
end

Rails load javascript

In application.rb

config.assets.paths.append Gem::Specification.find_by_name('upload-store').gem_dir + '/javascripts'

Add to application.js

//= require upload_store

Usage

UploadStore.get('file_name.jpg').process do |file|
  # Anything you want with a local file here.
  # Example: User.avatar.store!(file)
end
