Upload attachments to stories

[ceritium]

Hi, I just know the project I was working in my free time in another very similar, but this is much more advanced.

I´m still studing the code, i will try add thee feature to upload attachments.
Do you have preference over some plugin?

Thanks.

Hi Jose,

I don't have a personal preference for how to manage the uploaded files, but it would be nice to have some community discussion over the pros and cons of the options.

Could you list the candidates here that you would consider using?

I know these:

• http://blueimp.github.com/jQuery-File-Upload/
• http://www.uploadify.com/
• http://valums.com/ajax-upload/

I think that the last is the simplest and easy.

Those are nice frontend solutions but the big question is what to use in Rails. The only two candidates that I know would be:

• CarrierWave
• Paperclip

I'm not sure of the differences between them, although CarrierWave is newer.

I know both gems, I choose Carrierwave on my latest projects.
