I'm using gem 'youtube-dl.rb'.
From irb, I can get full result, about video, but at the rails 4.2 - I can't.
irb
require 'youtube-dl.rb'
a = YoutubeDL.get "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dsGWM5XGdg", {skip_download: true}
Result https://pastebin.com/9SLbs5GF (With a lot of data).
rails c
require 'youtube-dl.rb'
a = YoutubeDL.get "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dsGWM5XGdg", {skip_download: true}
Result from rails console have only this:
=> #<YoutubeDL::Video:0x007fbc29de1498 #url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dsGWM5XGdg", #options=#<YoutubeDL::Options:0x007fbc29de1448 #store={:skip_download=>true}>, #download_options=#<YoutubeDL::Options:0x007fbc29de1150 #store={:color=>false, :progress=>false, :skip_download=>true}>, #last_download_output="[youtube] 5dsGWM5XGdg: Downloading webpage\n[youtube] 5dsGWM5XGdg: Downloading video info webpage\n[youtube] 5dsGWM5XGdg: Extracting video information\n[youtube] 5dsGWM5XGdg: Downloading MPD manifest\n">
How I Can get the same result for RoR?
Try to check youtube-dl.rb version inside your rails app and inside your machine enviro

Whenever I try to generate a pdf using to_file, the process will just hang, and when I stop the development server I get Errno::ENOENT (No such file or directory - path/to/pdf). However, I am able to render a pdf inline using to_pdf. I'm also able to generate PDFs from the command line in the same folder that I'm trying to generate them in with to_file.
I'm using Rails 3.2.12 and pdfkit 0.8.2. I've tried using wkhtmltopdf versions 0.9.6 through 0.12.4. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04.
Example from controller:
html = render_to_string(:action => "show.html.erb", :formats => :html)
kit.stylesheets << "{Rails.root}/app/assets/stylesheets/stylesheet1.css"
kit.stylesheets << "#{Rails.root}/vendor/assets/stylesheets/stylesheet2.css"
kit.to_file("#{Rails.root}/folder_to_write_to/generated_pdf.pdf")
Turns out the issue was the asset pipeline conflicting with wkhtmltopdf. Added config.threadsafe! to development.rb and it started working.
Another issue can be the default options passed. For example, when I left the default print_media_type option in place, found this message in the log:
The switch --print-media-type, is not support using unpatched qt, and will be ignored."
Only when I override that does it work for me, either in the initializer or like so:
PDFKit.new(html, {print_media_type: false})
The message says it'll be ignored, but it wasn't. It was causing the file to not get generated.
I'm currently doing a Ruby on Rails project where I try to query from the Google Calendar API. I'm using this line of code:
service = Google::Apis::CalendarV3::CalendarService.new
and I have the gem google-api-client in my Gemfile. However, when I try to run the app with this line, it fails saying that it is Unknown Constant: Google Apis. If I try to put in the line that I've seen on StackOverflow, where I put require 'google/apis/calendar_v3' in the ruby file, it fails. I've spent 4 hours online trying to find anyone with a similar solution. If I try another API, like require 'google/apis/drive_v2', it works fine, just calendar. :(
The following works for me on Rails 4.2.1 -- Note that there are two requires.
require 'google/apis'
=> true
require 'google/apis/calendar_v3'
=> true
service = Google::Apis::CalendarV3::CalendarService.new
=> #<Google::Apis::CalendarV3::CalendarService:0x007fca01ae60a0 #root_url="https://www.googleapis.com/", #base_path="calendar/v3/", #upload_path="upload/calendar/v3/", #batch_path="batch", #client_options=#<struct Google::Apis::ClientOptions application_name="unknown", application_version="0.0.0", proxy_url=nil, use_net_http=false>, #request_options=#<struct Google::Apis::RequestOptions authorization=nil, retries=0, header=nil, timeout_sec=nil, open_timeout_sec=20>>
My gem file contains:
gem 'google-api-client', '0.9'
I'm having some problems reading a file from S3. I want to be able to load the ID3 tags remotely, but using open-URI doesn't work, it gives me the following error:
ruby-1.8.7-p302 > c=TagLib2::File.new(open(URI.parse("http://recordtemple.com.s3.amazonaws.com/music/745/original/The%20Stranger.mp3?1292096514")))
TypeError: can't convert Tempfile into String
from (irb):8:in `initialize'
from (irb):8:in `new'
from (irb):8
However, if i download the same file and put it on my desktop (ie no need for open-URI), it works just fine.
c=TagLib2::File.new("/Users/momofwombie/Desktop/blah.mp3")
is there something else I should be doing to read a remote file?
UPDATE: I just found this link, which may explain a little bit, but surely there must be some way to do this...
Read header data from files on remote server
Might want to check out AWS::S3, a Ruby Library for Amazon's Simple Storage Service
Do an AWS::S3:S3Object.find for the file and then an use about to retrieve the metadata
This solution assumes you have the AWS credentials and permission to access the S3 bucket that contains the files in question.
TagLib2::File.new doesn't take a file handle, which is what you are passing to it when you use open without a read.
Add on read and you'll get the contents of the URL, but TagLib2::File doesn't know what to do with that either, so you are forced to read the contents of the URL, and save it.
I also noticed you are unnecessarily complicating your use of OpenURI. You don't have to parse the URL using URI before passing it to open. Just pass the URL string.
require 'open-uri'
fname = File.basename($0) << '.' << $$.to_s
File.open(fname, 'wb') do |fo|
fo.print open("http://recordtemple.com.s3.amazonaws.com/music/745/original/The%20Stranger.mp3?1292096514").read
end
c = TagLib2::File.new(fname)
# do more processing...
File.delete(fname)
I don't have TagLib2 installed but I ran the rest of the code and the mp3 file downloaded to my disk and is playable. The File.delete would clean up afterwards, which should put you in the state you want to be in.
This solution isn't going to work much longer. Paperclip > 3.0.0 has removed to_file. I'm using S3 & Heroku. What I ended up doing was copying the file to a temporary location and parsing it from there. Here is my code:
dest = Tempfile.new(upload.spreadsheet_file_name)
dest.binmode
upload.spreadsheet.copy_to_local_file(:default_style, dest.path)
file_loc = dest.path
...
CSV.foreach(file_loc, :headers => true, :skip_blanks => true) do |row|}
This seems to work instead of open-URI:
Mp3Info.open(mp3.to_file.path) do |mp3info|
puts mp3info.tag.artist
end
Paperclip has a to_file method that downloads the file from S3.
I wanted to create PDFs for my rails application using wkhtml2pdf and wicked_pdf.
I downloaded and extracted wkhtml2pdf beta 4 and placed it in /usr/local/bin/wkhtml2pdf
I tried running it on a web site and it gave a nice result.
In my rails application (2.3.4) I installed wicked_pdf:
script/plugin install git://github.com/mileszs/wicked_pdf.git
script/generate wicked_pdf
Everything seemed to be ok.
inside script/console I run the following - (with the following output)
wp = WickedPdf.new
=># WickedPdf:0xb62f2c70 #exe_path="/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf"
HTML_DOCUMENT = "<html><body>Hello World</body></html>"
=> "<html><body>Hello World</body></html>"
pdf = wp.pdf_from_string HTML_DOCUMENT
=> "/usr/local/bin/wkhtmltopdf - - -q"
=> "\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"
of course this isn't good. According to the test the result of my last command should start with "%pdf-1.4"
Any idea what I can do?
Having the same problem. Removed the -q option from the wicked_pdf.rb file on line 19 and then was able to get the proper string on the console.
=> "%PDF-1.4\n1 0 obj\n<<\n/Title ...
This also seems to have solved other problems. The PDF still didn't render correctly when using it from the web site - embedded font issue - on to the next issue now.
Hopefully this will work for you.
I am trying to check if a file exists in my rails application.
I am running ruby 1.8.6 and rails 2.1.2 with windows XP.
So, the problem is that the FileTest.exists? method doesn't seem to be working. I have simplified the code to this point :
if FileTest.exists?("/images/header.jpg")
render :text => "yes"
else
render :text => "no <img src='/images/header.jpg' />"
end
If I do that the system displays "no" and then includes the image that displays correctly because /images/header.jpg exists.
I tried FileTest.exists?, FileTest.exist?, File.exists?, File.exist? and nothing seems to be working.
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks
I'm guessing it's because you're asking whether a file "header.jpg" exists in a directory "images" off of the root directory for your system (which on Windows I'd assume is "c:\"). Try putting the full path (from the filesystem root) to the "/images" directory rather than the URL path.
In particular, as pointed out by #Brian, you should use:
FileTest.exists?(RAILS_ROOT + "/images/header.jpg") # < rails 3.0
FileTest.exists?(Rails.root + "/images/header.jpg") # >= rails 3.0
Add RAILS_ROOT to the filename that you're checking before calling exists?
