Using rest-client to upload a paperclip attachment but getting no file found error
- by Angela
Hello,
I have a paperclip attachment that I wan to upload to a web-service using rest-client. However, when I try to run it, I get an error:
No such file or directory - /system/postalimages/1/original/postcard-1.png?1274635084
But the file exists for sure: I see it in my directory. How do I debug this?
Here is the code in my controller which makes the upload:
def upload
@postalcard = Postalcard.find(:last)
response = RestClient.post('http://www.postful.com/service/upload', {
:upload => {
:file => File.new(@postalcard.postalimage.url,'rb')
#paperclip file path
}
}, #end payload
{"Content-Type" => @postalcard.postalimage.content_type,
"Content-Length" => @postalcard.postalimage.size,
"Authorization" => 'Basic dGltZm9uZzg4OEBnbWFpbC5jb206ZDlQcTVKUU4='}
# end headers
) #close arguments to Restclient.post
return response.body
end
