Nested Model Multiple Uploads in Ruby on Rails
you want to create multiple uploads, first thing you might want to do is create new model and set up relations Let's say you want an multiple images for the Product model. Create an new model and make it belongs_to your parent model
rails g model ProductPhoto
#product.rb
has_many :product_photos, dependent: :destroy
accepts_nested_attributes_for :product_photos
#product_photo.rb
belongs_to :product
mount_uploader :image_url, ProductPhotoUploader # make sure to include uploader (Carrierwave example)Clicking "Copy Code" button will copy the code into the clipboard - memory. Please paste(Ctrl+V) it in your destination. The code will get pasted. Happy coding from Wikitechy - ruby on rails tutorial - rails guides - ruby rails - rubyonrails - learn ruby on rails - team
accepts_nested_attributes_for is must, because it allow us to create nested form, so we can upload new file, change product name and set price from an single form Next, create form in a view (edit/create)
<%= form_for @product, html: { multipart: true } do |product|%>
<%= product.text_field :price # just normal type of field %>
<%= product.fields_for :product_photos do |photo| # nested fields %>
<%= photo.file_field :image, :multiple => true, name: "product_photos[image_url][]" %>
<% end %>
<%= p.submit "Update", class: "btn" %>
<% end %>Clicking "Copy Code" button will copy the code into the clipboard - memory. Please paste(Ctrl+V) it in your destination. The code will get pasted. Happy coding from Wikitechy - ruby on rails tutorial - rails guides - ruby rails - rubyonrails - learn ruby on rails - team
Controller is nothing special, if you don't want to create an new one, just make an new one inside your product controller
# create an action
def upload_file
printer = Product.find_by_id(params[:id])
@product_photo = printer.prodcut_photos.create(photo_params)
end
# strong params
private
def photo_params
params.require(:product_photos).permit(:image)
endClicking "Copy Code" button will copy the code into the clipboard - memory. Please paste(Ctrl+V) it in your destination. The code will get pasted. Happy coding from Wikitechy - ruby on rails tutorial - rails guides - ruby rails - rubyonrails - learn ruby on rails - team
Display all images in a view
<% @product.product_photos.each do |i| %>
<%= image_tag i.image.url, class: 'img-rounded' %>
<% end %>
