filename not sticking in metadata

[Keith Bachand]

I have a rails 7 app with shrinerb and filepond. I am having issues with the filename sticking in metadata. I have tried a lot of workarounds with nothing working. It seems no matter what the value is null EXCEPT when I first upload initially its there. It seems its lost in space at some point between initial upload and cache storage where it doesn't stay in image_data.

uploads_controller.rb create action:

def create begin uploaded_file = ImageUploader.upload(params[:file], :cache) Rails.logger.debug "Metadata: #{uploaded_file.metadata.inspect}" if uploaded_file render json: { id: uploaded_file.id, storage: 'cache', metadata: uploaded_file.metadata } Rails.logger.debug "UPLOADED_FILE_Metadata: #{uploaded_file.metadata.inspect}" else render json: { error: "File upload failed" }, status: :unprocessable_entity end rescue => e Rails.logger.error "Upload failed: #{e.message}" render json: { error: e.message }, status: :unprocessable_entity end end

OUTPUT from uploads create with debug logging:

From here it goes to my locations_controller where I have a create action which will call an attach method to attach the images to the location.

my locations controller create action:

def create @location = current_user.locations.build(location_params.except(:uploaded_photos)) puts params.inspect # This is for debugging; consider removing it in production if params[:location][:uploaded_photos].present? attach_uploaded_photos(@location, params[:location][:uploaded_photos]) end if @location.save respond_to do |format| format.html { redirect_to locations_path } format.turbo_stream do render turbo_stream: turbo_stream.append("locationsUl", partial: "location", locals: { location: @location }) end # Handle JSON response for AJAX requests format.json { render json: @location, status: :created } end else respond_to do |format| format.html { render :new, status: :unprocessable_entity } format.turbo_stream { render turbo_stream: turbo_stream.replace(@location, partial: "locations/form", locals: { location: @location }) } # Handle JSON response for errors during AJAX requests format.json { render json: @location.errors.full_messages, status: :unprocessable_entity } end end end

locations controller attach:

def attach_uploaded_photos(location, uploaded_photo_ids) uploaded_photo_ids.each do |photo_id| uploaded_file = ImageUploader.uploaded_file(storage: 'cache', id: photo_id) uploaded_file.refresh_metadata! if uploaded_file.exists? Rails.logger.debug "Cached file: #{uploaded_file.inspect}" # No need for file_data parsing, directly use image_data photo = location.photos.build(image: uploaded_file, image_data: uploaded_file.metadata) if photo.save Rails.logger.debug "Photo attached successfully with metadata: #{photo.image.metadata.inspect}" else Rails.logger.error "Failed to attach photo: #{photo.errors.full_messages.join(", ")}" end else Rails.logger.error "Uploaded file with ID #{photo_id} not found or does not exist." end end end

From start to end logging:

photo model:

class Photo < ApplicationRecord include ImageUploader::Attachment(:image) # Assumes you have an ImageUploader for Shrine belongs_to :location, optional: true end

shrinerb initializer:

require "shrine" require "shrine/storage/file_system" if Rails.env.production? require "shrine/storage/google_cloud_storage" # Configure Shrine to use Google Cloud Storage in production else # Use local file system storage in development and test environments Shrine.storages = { cache: Shrine::Storage::FileSystem.new("public", prefix: "uploads/cache"), # temporary store: Shrine::Storage::FileSystem.new("public", prefix: "uploads/store"), # permanent } end # Common Shrine plugins and configurations Shrine.plugin :activerecord Shrine.plugin :cached_attachment_data # for retaining the cached file across form redisplays Shrine.plugin :restore_cached_data Shrine.plugin :refresh_metadata Shrine.plugin :store_dimensions Shrine.plugin :determine_mime_type, analyzer: :marcel Shrine.plugin :metadata_attributes # for persisting metadata Shrine.plugin :derivatives Shrine.plugin :metadata_attributes, filename: :filename

image_uploader:

require "shrine" class ImageUploader < Shrine # Plugin configurations and custom logic here end

What I expect:
-Shrinerb to be able to handle the metadata, specifically the filename from upload to storage cache, to storage store(permanent).

What I am seeing:
-Filepond is providing the metadata and once its handed off the shrinerb the filename is not sticking.

I am assuming this is an issue with shrinerb itself. I am using gem 'shrine', '~> 3.5'
