Deploy
------
Paperclip is aware of new attachment styles you have added in previous deploy. The only thing you should do after each deployment is to call:
rake paperclip:refresh:missing_styles
It will store current attachment styles in `RAILS_ROOT/public/system/paperclip_attachments.yml` by default. You can change it by:
Paperclip.registered_attachments_styles_path = '/tmp/config/paperclip_attachments.yml'
Here is an example for Capistrano:
namespace :deploy do
desc "build missing paperclip styles"
task :build_missing_paperclip_styles, :roles => :app do
run "cd #{release_path}; RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake paperclip:refresh:missing_styles"
end
end
after("deploy:update_code", "deploy:build_missing_paperclip_styles")
Now you don't have to remember to refresh thumbnails in production everytime you add new style.
Unfortunately it does not work with dynamic styles:
has_attached_file :avatar,
:styles => lambda{ |attachment| attachment.instance.other == 'a' ? {:thumb => "50x50#"} : {:large => "400x400"} }
It just ignores them.
If you already have working app and don't want `rake paperclip:refresh:missing_styles` to refresh old pictures, you need to tell
Paperclip about existing styles. Simply create paperclip_attachments.yml file by hand. For example:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_attached_file :avatar, :styles => {:thumb => 'x100', :croppable => '600x600>', :big => '1000x1000>'}
end
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
has_attached_file :cover, :styles => {:small => 'x100', :large => '1000x1000>'}
has_attached_file :sample, :styles => {:thumb => 'x100'}
end
Then in `RAILS_ROOT/public/system/paperclip_attachments.yml`:
---
:User:
:avatar:
- :thumb
- :croppable
- :big
:Book:
:cover:
- :small
- :large
:sample:
- :thumb
