First off, thanks to Rick Olson and whoever else was involved with this plugin... It's been amazingly easy to implement.
I've got a question about the path_info parameter, though... It seems that unless the request PATH_INFO exactly matches the path_info passed in to the plugin at inclusion, it won't actually trigger Add and add the upload to the list of running transfers. I'm assuming that this is for performance reasons, and makes good sense. However, I'm in a situation where I don't know the exact path that I will b e uploading from, because of various routing info in my app.
Thus, the ability for path_info to be a regex instead of just a string, thus allowing for:
return unless params['PATH_INFO'] =~ @path_info &&
params[Mongrel::Const::REQUEST_METHOD] == 'POST' &&
upload_id = Mongrel::HttpRequest.query_parse(params['QUERY_STRING'])['upload_id']
Then I just update my handler like so:
uri "/",
:handler => plugin("/handlers/upload", :path_info => %r{/account/\d/\d/media/upload}),
:in_front => true
And everything works fine... It's a super-small tweak, obviously, but I found that it made it a lot easier for me to use the plugin.
Thoughts? Is there a better way to do this?
