Uploading Files

Uploading files to your Git repository

Since version 1.5.13 GollumRails has the ability to upload files directly into your GIT repository.

Configuration

Model (not necessarily needed)

You can define a model, where you can customize your uploads further:

app/models/upload.rb

class Upload < GollumRails::Upload
end

Uploading files

# Signature: #initialize(file:SomeSortOfRackFileupload , destination:String)
# File is a Rack file upload:
# <input type="file" name="file" />
upload = Upload.new(file: params[:file], destination: 'uploads')
upload.save #or save! if you want exceptions to be thrown instead of returning false

OR:

upload = Upload.create(file: params[:file], destination: 'uploads')

Customizing

Blacklisting filetypes

You can easily blacklist Files by extension name. e.g. file.tar.gz has the extension .gz.

class Upload < GollumRails::Upload
  blacklist_format :gz, :png
end

Whitelisting filetypes

class Upload < GollumRails::Upload
  whitelist_format :tar, :bz2
end

Specify a maximum file size

class Upload < GollumRails::Upload
  max_filesize 2.megabytes
end

Specify a default upload directory

class Upload < GollumRails::Upload
  upload_directory 'uploads'
end

now you don't need to append your destination to your instance call anymore:

upload = Upload.create(file: params[:file])
