Folks,
I have a simple model hierarchy (reduced to example as below)
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :comments
end
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :post
has_attached_file :photo,
# :url => "/assets/class_cal/<original post
date>/:id/:style/:basename.:extension"
:url => "/assets/post/:post_date/:id/:style/:basename.:extension"
end
What I want to do: I am trying to insert the "original post date" in
the url with the :post_date (stored in the Post model) interpolation
function as defined in the Paperclip Interpolation module below.
--------------------------------------------
module Paperclip
module Interpolations
def post_date attachment, style_name
attachment.<access the post class/model
here>.instance_read(:post_date).to_s
end
end
end
-------------------------------------------------
Problem: The problem I am running into is that I can't seem to access
the post model object from the definition of post_date function above
- the attachment I understand refers to the Comment object. I have
tried attachment.post.instance_read(:post_date) but that doesn't work.
Looking for thoughts/help on how to access a field in another model in
this situation?
Thanks for any pointers - I am on 2.3.8.
-S
