README Suggestion:

[gbrl]

So I got it working with my basic Upload scaffold, however, specifying the field name in the dropzone config wasn't working, so here is my solution. I hacked the _params method to assign the [:file] parameter into the [:upload][:my_cv] key.

    def upload_params
      params[:upload][:my_cv] = params[:file]
      params.require(:upload).permit(:name, :my_cv, :upload, :file)
    end

Is this bad? I don't think I should add this to the README since it's a hack, but when I tried using the config, it had no effect:

document.addEventListener("turbolinks:load", function() {

  Dropzone.options.myAwesomeDropzone = {
  paramName: "upload[my_cv]", // The name that will be used to transfer the file
  maxFilesize: 2
}
  $("#new_upload").dropzone();
})

Maybe I'm doing something wrong here. Anyways, feel free to answer if you like. Or close the issue.

Glad you got it working! The thing is that you're specifying confit for myAwesomeDropzone but your form isn't matching that. Please, take a look at how Dropzone handles configuration and you should get that working without the params hack :)

LOL Thanks for pointing out my obvious mistake. I'll work on this some more and find a proper solution. You can close if you wanna.
