In my Rails 5 app I am using Carrierwave to upload images.
I have to model that uses the same uploader:
account.rb:
mount_uploader :logo, ImageUploader
image.rb:
mount_uploader :image, ImageUploader
This uploads the file to:
"uploads/#{model.class.to_s.underscore}/#{mounted_as}/#{model.id}"
The strange this now is that I can use:
@account.logo&.url(:thumb) // works!
@account.logo&.image_url(:thumb) // error!
But on the image model (one product has many images):
@product.images.first&.image_url(:thumb) // works!
@product.images.first&.url(:thumb) // error!
So in the first case I have to use .url and in the second one .image_url
An I have no idea why...any help?
The instance method image_url is defined dynamically based on the column that is passed to mount_uploader and simply calls url on the column. The definition looks like this...
def #{column}_url(*args)
#{column}.url(*args)
end
So, I would suspect that logo_url would work on @account (although I have not tested this)
