Rack::Test::UploadedFile should expose :tempfile accessor to be API-compatible with new ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile

[wolframarnold]

Aaron Patterson's (@tenderlove) rewrite of ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile exposes tempfile as an attr_accessor.

Rack::Test::Uploaded file should do the same.

This broke for me as well when I upgraded our Rails app from 3.0.0 to 3.0.4.

Scott -- Is the breakage you're referring to is rooted in the Rails change or Rack-Test?

Wolfram -- Can you provide a specific example of how this change would be helpful to you? Rack-Test does not aim to be API compatible with Rails generally.

Hey Bryan,

What I was seeing was:

NoMethodError:
undefined method `tempfile' for #Tempfile:0x0000010eb8cd88

How I got around it was by reopening the Rack::Test::UploadedFile class and exposed tempfile:

module Rack
  module Test
    class UploadedFile
      def tempfile
        @tempfile
      end
    end
  end
end

Hope it helps.

Thanks,

Scott

Hey all,

Since this thread has been open and stale for a long time, I'm going to close this out. It's not clear there is a Rack-Test bug here, and Rack-Test does not aim to be API-compatible with Rails. As a general rule, Rack-Test is lower level than ActionPack.

If there's a specific bug that can be described in a failing test, please reopen and I can definitely assist. Also, if there's a request for an additional API method to make things easier, please open a separate ticket outlining the desire for the feature.

Thanks,
-Bryan
