Is file.open required? #3

Closed yasirs closed 11 years ago

yasirs commented 11 years ago

I am storing files:

u = User.new
u.avatar = params[:file]
u.save!

and retreiving files like this:

u = User.find(:first)
data = u.avatar.read

Is u.avatar = File.open('somewhere') required as in the Readme?

Not really, it was just a convenient way to show that a file object reference is needed.
