Settings View Source Dropkick.File (dropkick v0.0.1)

A custom type that maps a upload-like structure to a file.

• :key - The location of the the uploaded file
• :content_type - The content type of the uploaded file
• :filename - The filename of the uploaded file given in the request
• :status - The status of the uploaded file. It can be :cached (when the file was just casted from a Plug.Upload and the key points to a temporary directory), :deleted (when the file was deleted from the storage and the key points to its old location) and :stored (when the file was persisted to its final destination and the key points to its current location).
• :metadata - This field is meant to be used by users to store metadata about the file.
• :__cache__ - This field is used to store internal in-memmory information about the file that might be relevant during processing (this field is currently not used internally and its not casted to the database).

Security

Like Plug.Upload, the :content_type and :filename fields are client-controlled. Because of this, you should inspect and validate these values before trusting the upload content. You can check the file's magic number signature by passing the option infer: true to your fields:

field :avatar, Dropkick.File, infer: true
