Paper Clip and Hobo

[Benjamin]

Hello,

I'm relatively new to Ruby, but I was following along with the
tutorials at a pretty decent clip when I decided I'd try to add an
image field for a particular model. I found the instructions here:
http://cookbook.hobocentral.net/plugins/paperclip_with_hobo

I followed along, and with a few bumps thought I finally had to ready
to go, but I kept getting this error message, "Unable to generate hash
without :hash_secret" so I decided i'd pass this option to my model
like this:

class Machine < ActiveRecord::Base

hobo_model # Don't put anything above this

fields do
name :string, :unique
price :integer
timestamps
end

has_attached_file :photo, :hash_secret


And I now get this error: "can't convert Symbol into Hash"

I've read a couple places about this error but I haven't found any
fixes that work, am I just using an outdated version of the git from
the tutorial with the recent upgrades to Hobo?

Which versions of Hobo, Hobo_paperclip and paperclip are you using?

Bob

hobo (1.3.0)

Paperclip 1.5.2

Paper Clip with hobo from this git : it://github.com/tablatom/paperclip_with_hobo.git

I cannot seem to find the version number inside of the plugin anywhere, it's just three files, the init.rb the taglib and the readme

If anyone happens to have this problem and is generating a new hobo app this branch of paperclip fixed my problem:

gem 'paperclip', :git => "git://github.com/jeanmartin/paperclip.git", :branch => "master" 

A co-worker found a github reference to the above fix and I thought I should share as it seems the Hobo group is a bit better indexed.

I also thought I posted a response here listing my versions, but it was never approved in this discussion?

Glad you got it fixed. I missed your earlier response somehow.
