Ruby on Rails / Paperclip / AWS::S3::NoSuchBucket error - ruby-on-rails

I installed the paperclip plugin and was able to use it locally. When I configured it to work with amazon S3 I keep getting the NoSuchBucket (The specified bucket does not exist) error. Paperclip documentation states that the bucket will be created if it doesn't exist but clearly
something is going wrong in my case.
I first insalled aws-s3 gem (v0.6.2)
then also installed right_aws gem (v1.9.0)
both have corresponding
config.gem "aws-s3", :lib => "aws/s3"
config.gem 'right_aws', :version => '1.9.0'
lines in environment.rb file
The code for the image.rb file with paperclip is as follows:
class Image < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :work
has_attached_file :photo, :styles => {:big => "612x1224>", :small => "180X360>", :thumb => "36x36#"},
:storage => 's3',
:s3_credentials => YAML.load_file("#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/s3.yml")[RAILS_ENV],
:path => ":attachment/:id/:style/:basename.:extension",
:bucket => 'my-unique-image-bucket'
attr_protected :photo_file_name, :photo_content_type, :photo_size
validates_attachment_presence :photo
validates_attachment_size :photo, :less_than => 3.megabytes
validates_attachment_content_type :photo, :content_type => ['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/gif']
end

I'm not entirely sure this is it, but your loading of the s3_credentials is different than what I'm using on my production sites.
My config line is:
:s3_credentials => "#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/s3.yml"
Instead of
:s3_credentials => YAML.load_file("#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/s3.yml")[RAILS_ENV]

it should create but the bucket but this was a bug at one point :
http://groups.google.com/group/paperclip-plugin/browse_thread/thread/42f148cee71a0477
i recently had this problem and it turned out to be the servers time was hugely off and s3 wouldnt allow any updates "that far in the future" or similar but the rails error was NoSuchBucket...confusing
..

I have installed the s3fox plugin for firefox and created the bucket with the plugin. Now Paperclip works fine with S3 as the bucket identified is already created.
But I am still curious about paperclip's inability to create new buckets with the code above.

In case anyone winds up here via google: I saw this same error when I mistakenly switched the order of the 2nd and 3rd parameters I was passing to AWS::S3::S3Object.store.

It's not your case, but AWS doesn't allow upper case letters in bucket name and paperclip doesn't check that, failing in create_bucket.

Adding Paperclip Attachment to Spree Orders Table,

I am working on an ecommerce website using Solidus, Rails. The site allows you to order photo frames & prints from a variety of options.
To print a photo a user must upload the jpg file of the photo. So, to allow that I modified the orders table and added a paperclip attachment called 'attachment'
I ran the following command
rails generate paperclip SpreeOrder attachment
Which generated the migrations, then I ran rake db:migrate
Then I created a spree/order_decorator.rb file, and added has_attached_file
module Spree::OrderDecorator
has_attached_file :attachment, styles: {
:medium => {
:geometry => "640x480",
:format => 'jpeg'
},
:thumb => { :geometry => "160x120", :format => 'jpeg', :time => 10}
}, :processors => [:transcoder]
validates_attachment_content_type :attachment, content_type: /\Aimage\/.*\z/
Spree::Order.prepend self
end
After this I ran the server, and ended up getting this error
undefined method `has_attached_file' for Spree::OrderDecorator:Module (NoMethodError)
I have configured solidus for use with paperclip only, so I am really confused as to why I am getting this error, even later I manually went and generated a paperclip.rb file in the config/initializers directory, but still I get the same error.
Please help with this!!
Thank You!!
You should add those paperclip method at class level in the prepended module:
def self.prepended(base)
base.has_attached_file
end

How does lambda function works in rails with an example from paperclip gem

I had a problem with the Paperclip gem where the default_url doesn't load after it fingerprinted in production environment, my code was like this:
class User
# Attachments to Paperclip - Profile pic
has_attached_file :profilepic_attachment,
:styles => {
thumb: '100x100#',
square: '500x500#'
},
:default_url => ActionController::Base.helpers.asset_path("missing/default_user.png"),
:preserve_files => true
validates_attachment_content_type :profilepic_attachment, content_type: /\Aimage\/.*\Z/
end
Note that when I do rails c in production and print out ActionController::Base.helpers.asset_path("missing/default_user.png"). The fingerprinted version (correct version) is printed out.
default_user-fb34158daae99f297ad672c43bb1a4d3917d8e272b5f2254aa055392aa2faa94.png.
However, when I inspect it from browser, the original /assets/missing/default_user.png appeared.
I struggled for long time until I came across this post, which tells me to change
:default_url => ActionController::Base.helpers.asset_path("missing/default_user.png"),
to
:default_url => lambda { |image| ActionController::Base.helpers.asset_path("missing/default_user.png") },
I wasn't sure what happened, but then it works. I then wonder what lambda function is for and when is it used in rails? also, it passed in a variable |image| but seems it wasn't use in the code. Why is that?
Thanks!

CKeditor in rails_admin

Where I can find my images in rails app folders? I upload them by CKeditor and doesn't know where are they.
https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin
You'll need to create a model to handle the image uploads, typically with the likes of Paperclip or Carrierwave
From CKEditor's Github:
For files uploading support you need generage models for file storage.
Currently supported next backends:
ActiveRecord (paperclip, carrierwave, dragonfly)
Mongoid (paperclip, carrierwave, dragonfly)
Image Upload Model
You'll have a CKEditor model directory (with attachment_file.rb inside) - just add Paperclip options for it. Here's a question which will show you what to do: How exactly DO you integrate ckeditor with Paperclip so it can upload image files?
Yes you can. I assume that you have paperclip already set up for S3.
So you have only edit the picture.rb and attachement_file.rb in you
model directory (app/model/ckeditor/) and replace these lines
has_attached_file :data,
:url => "/ckeditor_assets/attachments/:id/:filename",
:path => ":rails_root/public/ckeditor_assets/attachments/:id/:filename" with
your papeclip version has_attached_file:
has_attached_file :data, :styles => { :content => '575>', :thumb =>
'80x80#' },
:storage => :s3, :s3_credentials => "#{Rails.root}/config/s3.yml", :path => ":attachment/:id/:style.:extension",
:url => ":s3_domain_url" That's it. Btw: this is example from Rails 3.

Getting Image Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError after updating to Paperclip 3.4.0

I got the following message after upgrading:
Paperclip 3.0 introduces a non-backward compatible change in your
attachment path. This will help to prevent attachment name clashes
when you have multiple attachments with the same name. If you didn't
alter your attachment's path and are using Paperclip's default, you'll
have to add :path and :url to your has_attached_file definition.
For example:
has_attached_file :avatar,
:path => ":rails_root/public/system/:attachment/:id/:style/:filename",
:url => "/system/:attachment/:id/:style/:filename"
So I did so:
post.rb:
has_attached_file :image, :styles => { :medium => "170x300>",
:thumb => "142x185>" },
:path => ":rails_root/public/system/:attachment/:id/:style/:filename",
:url => "/system/:attachment/:id/:style/:filename"
But then I saw this error message:
Image Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError
I even added this to environments/development.rb:
Paperclip.options[:command_path] = "/usr/bin/"
(which identify outputs /usr/bin/identify)
But still no luck.
What could be the problem?
Wow, I didn't expect this. The problem wasn't due to upgrading.
It was because the file I was uploading was named like this:
Screenshot at 2012-11-26 16:22:44.png
Weird.
The issue is in the filename.
colons are not accepted, if you remove the colon from the attachment name using gsub it'll be accepted always.

AWS::S3::MissingAccessKey in Paperclip but I've defined both

I'm on Heroku, and this is a portfolio thing which I'm putting up on github for potential employers to look at, so obviously I don't want to stick my keys in a S3.yml file. I've exported S3_KEY and S3_SECRET to my environment both on Heroku and my machine and ruby can access them. But when I try and upload, it gives me the following error:
AWS::S3::MissingAccessKey in Portfolio itemsController#update
You did not provide both required access keys. Please provide the access_key_id and the secret_access_key.
The trace is irrelevant except for my controller line #, which works fine until I try and upload a file. Here's what I have:
class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :image, :image_file_name, :image_content_type, :image_file_size, :portfolio_item_id, :order
has_attached_file :image,
:styles => {
:thumb => "100x100#",
:small => "300x300",
:large => "600x600>"
},
:storage => :s3,
:s3_credentials => {
:access_key_id => ENV["S3_KEY"],
:secret_access_key => ENV["S3_SECRET"]
},
:bucket => "bucketybucket",
:path => "portfolio"
end
Anyone know what's going on here? How am I constructing this hash wrong?
Oh, and I've followed this thread, no dice: Paperclip and Amazon S3 Issue
same problem...
seems like that ENV const doesn't load before loading the module. solve by using file argument
like this
:s3_credentials => Rails.root.join('config/amazon_s3.yml')
and in amazon_s3.yml
access_key_id: 'your_key'
secret_access_key: 'your_sec_key'
bucket: 'somebucket'
furthermore, you can set environment variable by using heroku config:add command, which is describe in Heroku DevCenter
The problem is because the Enviroment variable in heroku is different that the enviroment variable in your system, so it may happen that the application works just in one enviroment
