Heroku File Storage
Heroku only has 100MB of file storage, right? I'm making a low-level rails app and I really like Heroku, but if 开发者_JS百科my app allows each user to upload one picture, I may run out of space quickly...is there a simple solution that will allow me to have alternative file storage for profile pics or something of the like?
I would recommend you to check heroku add-on solution which is https://addons.heroku.com/cloudinary. You will get 500MB for free and easy heroku integration.
For RoR app you can check: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/cloudinary#using-with-ruby-on-rails
There is also documentation for Nodejs and Django.
See this blog post
In your model.
has_attached_file :picture,
:styles => {:large => "275x450>"},
:storage => :s3,
:s3_credentials => "#{RAILS_ROOT}/config/s3.yml",
:path => "appname/:attachment/:style/:id.:extension"
In s3.yml in your config dir:
development:
bucket: bucketname
access_key_id: key
secret_access_key: key
production:
bucket: bucketname
access_key_id: key
secret_access_key: key
Then go signup for a bucket at Amazon S3: http://aws.amazon.com/s3/
Yes, the simplest solution is to use the api.imgur.com, which allows you to upload 1250 images for free per hour.
You just need to register and get your client id then you need to send post request to
https://api.imgur.com/3/upload
with the image data as form data. Then you get a link of the uploaded image in response data which you can store it in database and then you can access the image like any other image with the link from front end.
