allow defaults
Reported by Gaius Centus Novus | March 31st, 2008 @ 03:33 PM
I'd like to be able to change the value for @path in a Papaerclip::Attachment based on whether I'm in development, testing, or production. I could do this in my model:
has_attached_file :avatar, :path => {:production => ..., :test => ...}[ENV['RAILS_ENV']], ...
but it's not very elegant. I'd rather do this in my config/environments/xxx.rb:
Paperclip::Attachment::DEFAULTS[:path] = '...'
and not specify a path in my model unless I really want to override it.
Oddly, the outdated file_column does this the right way.

I've added in defaults hash, but in a slightly different way from how you suggested. I added the hash as an accessor as Paperclip::Attachment.default_options and is available in trunk now.

Just to clear up for anybody reading this (it's not obvious from the above comment), to set app wide Paperclip defaults do something like this:
Paperclip::Attachment.default_options[:path] = 'my_path'
