#cache required in application controller

Hi,

I am using an html form to require users to upload images. My application is now sending me the error: Need to implement #cache! if you want to use Cloudinary::CarrierWave::Storage as a cache storage. 

I have the following form in my html.erb file:

 

 <form action="/insert_outfit" method="post" class="form-horizontal" enctype="multipart/form-data">

      <div class="form-group">

        <label for="outfit1_box"> Outfit 1 </label>

        <input type="file" id="outfit1_box" name="outfit1_from_query" class="form-control"></div>

      <div class="form-group">

        <label for="outfit2_box"> Outfit 2 </label>

        <input type="file" id="outfit2_box" name="outfit2_from_query" class="form-control" height=100>

      </div>

      <button type="submit" class="btn">

        Create post

      </button>

    </form>

 

In my controller file I have the following code:

 

def create

 

    @outfit1 = Outfit.new

    @outfit1.image = params.fetch("outfit1_from_query")

    @outfit1.owner_id = session[:user_id]

    @outfit2 = Outfit.new

    @outfit2.image = params.fetch("outfit2_from_query")

    @outfit2.owner_id = session[:user_id]

 

...

end

 

The error is highlighting the @outfit1.image code line in the application controller, since :image is the file key. 

 

The only support resources I have found require a block loop for creating a cache, which does not make sense for my file upload form. 

 

Any help would be appreciated!

  Hi Chloe,

  Could you try adding `config.cache_storage = :file` to the Carrierwave initializer, e.g.

  CarrierWave.configure do |config|
   config.cache_storage = :file
  end

  Please let me know how it goes.

  Hey Aleksander--thanks so much! 

  I figured it out--needed to change "short_name" to an attribute in my model

    def public_id

      return model.short_name

    end 

   

  changed to:

   

  def public_id

      return model.id

    end 

   

  Also the public_id method is not necessary, so I could have removed it.

   

  Thanks for your help!
