sequel_container

contained documents (i.e. attachments) for sequel models

WHY?

I needed a way to more easily support images and css in blobs, since the hosting provider I'm using is read-only (except for the tmp folder) and I'm not ready to use Amazon, or any other external storage provider.

Installation

Run the following if you haven't already:

$ gem sources -a http://gems.github.com

Install the gem(s):

$ sudo gem install -r sbfaulkner-sequel_container

Example

require 'rubygems'
require 'sequel'

class User < Sequel::Model
  set_schema do
    primary_key :id
    varchar :avatar_type, :size => 255
    bytea :avatar_data
  end
  is :container, :tmp => File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/tmp'
  contains :avatar, :url => '/images/avatars/:id.:extension'
end
