Paperclip SFTP

Paperclip SFTP is Secure File Transfer Protocol storage for Paperclip

gem 'paperclip-sftp', '~> 1.0.0'

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_attached_file :avatar,
    storage: :sftp,
    sftp_options: {
      host: "sftp.example.com",
      user: "user",
      password: "password",
      port: 22
    }
end

You can define these options globally, enable this storage for specific environments, etc. Please see Paperclip github page for more details.

It is also possible to specify SSH key for passwordless connection.

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_attached_file :avatar,
    storage: :sftp,
    sftp_options: {
      host: "sftp.example.com",
      user: "user",
      port: 22,
      keys: "/path/to/id_rsa.pub"
    }
end

All tests are live so in order to run them you need to setup local SFTP server. That will take at most 5 minutes on either MacOS or Linux. Connection is defined in test/test_helper.rb if you need to change it.
