RoR Resume app using paperclip and minio

Example Ruby on Rails App that works with a Minio Server. We will use the paperclip in our rails app to upload objects to a Minio Server. Full code is available here : https://github.com/sadysnaat/minio-paperclip, released under Apache 2.0 License.

1. Prerequisites

• Install mc from here.
• Install Minio Server from here.
• ruby 2.0 and above
• rails 4.0 and above

2. Dependencies

• paperclip
• aws-sdk v2.0 gem
• twitter-bootstrap-rails
• simple_form

3. Install

$ git clone git@github.com:sadysnaat/minio-paperclip.git
$ cd minio-paperclip
$ bundle install

4. Set Up Bucket

In this example I have used minio public server and bucket is testbucket.

If you wish to use another bucket, create a new bucket with the following command.

$ mc mb play/new_bucket_name

5. Configure paperclip defaults to Minio Server

# Set default configuration here, if you wish to use different buckets/servers in
# different environments please set configuration in config/environments/ files
# For more details please refer to
# https://github.com/thoughtbot/paperclip#defaults
config.paperclip_defaults = {
  storage: :s3,
  s3_protocol: ':https',
  s3_permissions: 'private',
  s3_region: 'us-east-1',
  s3_credentials: {
    bucket: 'testbucket',
    access_key_id: 'Q3AM3UQ867SPQQA43P2F',
    secret_access_key: 'zuf+tfteSlswRu7BJ86wekitnifILbZam1KYY3TG',
  },
  s3_host_name: 'play.minio.io:9000',
  s3_options: {
    endpoint: "https://play.minio.io:9000", # for aws-sdk
    force_path_style: true # for aws-sdk (required for minio)
  },
  url: ':s3_path_url',
  path: "/:class/:id.:style.:extension"
}

8. Run The App

$ rake db:migrate
$ rails s

Now if you visit http://localhost:3000 you should be able to see the example application.
