How to integrate jquery.fileupload-rails?

I am trying to integrate the following gem: https://rubygems.org/gems/jquery.fileupload-rails but it became a mission impossible. I am trying for last two days and it simply doesn't want to load jquery.fileupload-rails javascript.

I tried this tutorials:

railscasts.com/episodes/381-jquery-file-upload?view=asciicast 5minutenpause.com/blog/2013/09/04/multiple-file-upload-with-jquery-rails-4-and-paperclip/

This is my application.js:

//= require jquery
//= require jquery-ui
//= require jquery_ujs
//= jquery.fileupload/basic
//= require turbolinks
//= require_tree .

Gemfile.lock:

jquery-rails (3.1.2)
jquery-ui-rails (5.0.2)
jquery.fileupload-rails (1.11.0)

I have tried many combinations and it doesn't work. How to make it work?

Solution

  • Add a line to your Gemfile.

    gem 'jquery.fileupload-rails'

    Now you can require the javascript library in application.js:

    //= require jquery.fileupload
