allow defaults

Reported by Gaius Centus Novus | March 31st, 2008 @ 03:36 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Oddly, the outdated file_column does this the right way.
