def handle_uploads_for(*args)
  args.each do |arg|
    if arg.respond_to?(:first) and arg.respond_to?(:last)
      before(arg.first.to_sym) do
        get_uploaded_files(arg.last)
      end
    else
      before(arg.to_sym) do
        get_uploaded_files
      end
    end
  end
end

- (Object) upload_options(options)

Sets options for file uploads in the controller.

Examples:

# This controller will handle all file uploads automatically.
# All uploaded files are saved automatically in '/uploads/myapp'
# and old files are overwritten.
#
class MyController < Ramaze::Controller

  # Use upload helper
  helper :upload

  handle_all_uploads
  upload_options :allow_overwrite => true,
                 :autosave => true,
                 :default_upload_dir => '/uploads/myapp',
                 :unlink_tempfile => true
end

# This controller will handle all file uploads automatically.
# All uploaded files are saved automatically, but the exact location
# is depending on a session variable. Old files are overwritten.
#
class MyController2 < Ramaze::Controller

  # Use upload helper
  helper :upload

  # Proc to use for save directory calculation
  calculate_dir = lambda { File.join('/uploads', session['user']) }

  handle_all_uploads
  upload_options :allow_overwrite => true,
                 :autosave => true,
                 :default_upload_dir => calculate_dir,
                 :unlink_tempfile => true
end

Parameters:

  • options (Hash) —

    Options controlling how file uploads are handled.

Options Hash (options):

  • :allow_overwrite (Boolean) —

    If set to true, uploaded files are allowed to overwrite existing ones. This option is set to false by default.

  • :autosave (Boolean) —

    If set to true, Ramaze::Helper::Upload::UploadedFile#save will be called on all matched file uploads automatically. You can use this option to automatically save files at a preset location, but please note that you will need to set the :default_upload_dir (and possibly :allow_overwrite) options as well in order for this to work correctly. This option is set to false by default.

  • :default_upload_dir (String|Proc) —

    If set to a string (representing a path in the file system) this option will allow you to save uploaded files without specifying a path. If you intend to call Ramaze::Helper::Upload::UploadedFile#save with a path you don't need to set this option at all. If you need to delay the calculation of the directory, you can also set this option to a proc. The proc should accept zero arguments and return a string. This comes in handy when you want to use different directory paths for different users etc. This option is set to nil by default.

  • :unlink_tempfile (Boolean) —

    If set to true, this option will automatically unlink the temporary file created by Rack immediately after Ramaze::Helper::Upload::UploadedFile#save is done saving the uploaded file. This is probably not needed in most cases, but if you don't want to expose your uploaded files in a shared tempdir longer than necessary this option might be for you. This option is set to false by default.
