Delayed::Paperclip [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/jrgifford/delayed_paperclip.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/jrgifford/delayed_paperclip) [![Code Climate](https://codeclimate.com/github/jrgifford/delayed_paperclip.png)](https://codeclimate.com/github/jrgifford/delayed_paperclip)

======================================================================================

4+
5+
DelayedPaperclip lets you process your [Paperclip](http://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip) attachments in a
6+
background task with [DelayedJob](https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job), [Resque](https://github.com/resque/resque) or [Sidekiq](https://github.com/mperham/sidekiq).
7+
8+
Why?
9+
----
10+
11+
The most common use case for Paperclip is to easily attach image files
12+
to ActiveRecord models. Most of the time these image files will have
13+
multiple styles and will need to be resized when they are created. This
14+
is usually a pretty [slow operation](http://www.jstorimer.com/ruby/2010/01/05/speep-up-your-paperclip-tests.html) and should be handled in a
15+
background task.
16+
17+
I’m sure that everyone knows this, this gem just makes it easy to do.
18+
19+
Installation
20+
------------
21+
22+
Install the gem:
23+
24+
````
25+
gem install delayed_paperclip
26+
````
27+
28+
Or even better, add it to your Gemfile.
29+
30+
````
31+
source "https://rubygems.org"
32+
gem 'delayed_paperclip'
33+
````
34+
35+
Dependencies:
36+
37+
- Paperclip
38+
- DJ, Resque or Sidekiq
39+
40+
Usage
41+
-----
42+
43+
In your model:
44+
45+
````ruby
46+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
47+
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: {
48+
medium: "300x300>",
49+
thumb: "100x100>"
50+
}
51+
52+
process_in_background :avatar
53+
end
54+
````
55+
56+
Use your Paperclip attachment just like always in controllers and views.
57+
58+
To select between using Resque or Delayed::Job, just install and
59+
configure your choice properly within your application, and
60+
delayed_paperclip will do the rest. It will detect which library is
61+
loaded and make a decision about which sort of job to enqueue at that
62+
time.
63+
64+
### Resque
65+
66+
Make sure that you have [Resque](https://github.com/resque/resque) up and running. The jobs will be
67+
dispatched to the <code>:paperclip</code> queue, so you can correctly
68+
dispatch your worker. Configure resque and your workers exactly as you
69+
would otherwise.
70+
71+
### DJ
72+
73+
Just make sure that you have DJ up and running.
74+
75+
### Sidekiq
76+
77+
Make sure that [Sidekiq](http://github.com/mperham/sidekiq) is running and listening to the
78+
`paperclip` queue, either by adding it to your
79+
`sidekiq.yml` config file under `- queues:` or by
80+
passing the command line argument `-q paperclip` to Sidekiq.
81+
82+
### Displaying images during processing
83+
84+
In the default setup, when you upload an image for the first time and
85+
try to display it before the job has been completed, Paperclip will be
86+
none the wiser and output the url of the image which is yet to be
87+
processed, which will result in a broken image link being displayed on
88+
the page.
89+
90+
To have the missing image url be outputted by paperclip while the image is being processed, all you need to do is add a
91+
`#{attachment_name}_processing` column to the specific model you want
92+
to enable this feature for. This feature gracefully degrades and will not affect models which do not have the column added to them.
93+
94+
````ruby
95+
class AddAvatarProcessingToUser < ActiveRecord::Migration
96+
def self.up
97+
add_column :users, :avatar_processing, :boolean
98+
end
99+
100+
def self.down
101+
remove_column :users, :avatar_processing
102+
end
103+
end
104+
105+
@user = User.new(avatar: File.new(...))
106+
@user.save
107+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/images/original/missing.png"
108+
Delayed::Worker.new.work_off
109+
110+
@user.reload
111+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/system/images/3/original/IMG_2772.JPG?1267562148"
112+
````
113+
114+
#### Custom image for processing
115+
116+
This is useful if you have a difference between missing images and
117+
images currently being processed.
118+
119+
````ruby
120+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
121+
has_attached_file :avatar
122+
123+
process_in_background :avatar, processing_image_url: "/images/original/processing.jpg"
124+
end
125+
126+
@user = User.new(avatar: File.new(...))
127+
@user.save
128+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/images/original/processing.png"
129+
Delayed::Worker.new.work_off
130+
131+
@user.reload
132+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/system/images/3/original/IMG_2772.JPG?1267562148"
133+
````
134+
135+
You can also define a custom logic for `processing_image_url`, for
136+
example to display the original\
137+
picture while specific formats are being processed.
138+
139+
````ruby
140+
class Item < ActiveRecord::Base
141+
has_attached_file :photo
142+
143+
process_in_background :photo, processing_image_url: :processing_image_fallback
144+
145+
def processing_image_fallback
146+
options = photo.options
147+
options[:interpolator].interpolate(options[:url], photo, :original)
148+
end
149+
end
150+
````
151+
152+
#### Have processing? status available, but construct image URLs as if delayed_paperclip wasn’t present
153+
154+
If you define the `#{attachment_name}_processing` column, but set the
155+
`url_with_processing` option to false, this opens up other options (other than modifying the url that paperclip returns) for giving feedback to the user while the image is processing. This is useful for advanced situations, for example when dealing with caching systems.
156+
157+
Note especially the method #processing? which passes through the value
158+
of the boolean created via migration.
159+
160+
````ruby
161+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
162+
has_attached_file :avatar
163+
164+
process_in_background :avatar, url_with_processing: false
165+
end
166+
167+
@user = User.new(avatar: File.new(...))
168+
@user.save
169+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/system/images/3/original/IMG_2772.JPG?1267562148"
170+
@user.avatar.processing? #=> true
171+
Delayed::Worker.new.work_off
172+
173+
@user.reload
174+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/system/images/3/original/IMG_2772.JPG?1267562148"
175+
@user.avatar.processing? #=> false
176+
````
177+
178+
#### Only process certain styles
179+
180+
This is useful if you don’t want the background job to reprocess all
181+
styles.
182+
183+
````ruby
184+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
185+
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: { small: "25x25#", medium: "50x50x" }
186+
187+
process_in_background :avatar, only_process: [:small]
188+
end
189+
````
190+
191+
Like paperclip, you could also supply a lambda function to define
192+
`only_process` dynamically.
193+
194+
````ruby
195+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
196+
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: { small: "25x25#", medium: "50x50x" }
197+
198+
process_in_background :avatar, only_process: lambda { |a| a.instance.small_supported? ? [:small, :large] : [:large] }
199+
end
200+
````
201+
202+
#### Split processing
203+
204+
You can process some styles in the foreground and some in the background
205+
by setting `only_process` on both `has_attached_file` and
206+
`process_in_background`.
207+
208+
````ruby
209+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
210+
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: { small: "25x25#", medium: "50x50x" }, only_process: [:small]
211+
212+
process_in_background :avatar, only_process: [:medium]
213+
end
214+
````
215+
216+
#### Reprocess Without Delay
217+
218+
This is useful if you don’t want the background job. It accepts
219+
individual styles to. Take note, normal `reprocess!` does not accept styles as arguments anymore. It will delegate to DelayedPaperclip and
220+
reprocess all styles.
221+
222+
````ruby
223+
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
224+
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: { small: "25x25#", medium: "50x50x" }
225+
226+
process_in_background :avatar
227+
end
228+
229+
@user.avatar.url #=> "/system/images/3/original/IMG_2772.JPG?1267562148"
230+
@user.avatar.reprocess_without_delay!(:medium)
231+
````
232+
233+
Defaults
234+
--------
235+
236+
Global defaults for all delayed_paperclip instances in your app can be
237+
defined by changing the DelayedPaperclip.options Hash, this can be useful for setting a default ‘processing image,’ so you won’t have to define it in every `process_in_background` definition.
238+
239+
If you’re using Rails you can define a Hash with default options in
240+
config/application.rb or in any of the config/environments/\*.rb files on `config.delayed_paperclip_defaults`, these will get merged into DelayedPaperclip.options as your Rails app boots. An example:
241+
242+
````
243+
module YourApp
244+
class Application < Rails::Application
245+
# Other code...
246+
247+
config.delayed_paperclip_defaults = {
248+
url_with_processing: true,
249+
processing_image_url: 'custom_processing.png'
250+
}
251+
end
252+
end
253+
````
254+
255+
What if I’m not using images?
256+
-----------------------------
257+
258+
This library works no matter what kind of post-processing you are doing
259+
with Paperclip.
260+
261+
Does it work with s3?
262+
---------------------
263+
264+
Yes.
265+
266+

Checkout out CONTRIBUTING. In short, you’ll need a redis server running
270+
for testing. Run all tests with
