Overview¶ ↑
The upload progress plugin will alter your rails CGI
handling to track the uploaded status of multipart/form encoded posts. The plugin will also add helper methods to create an AJAX updating progress bar.
Installing¶ ↑
Run “script/plugin upload_progress” or checkout the source into your plugins folder.
svn checkout http://dev.rubyonrails.com/svn/plugins/upload_progress
Expand this archive in your Rails.root/vendor/plugins directory. The resulting plugin directory should look like:
Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/ Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/README.txt Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/Rakefile Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/init.rb Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/public/ Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/public/stylesheets/ Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/public/stylesheets/upload_progress.css Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/lib/ Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/doc/ Rails.root/vendor/plugins/upload_progress/test/
The stylesheets included in public/stylesheets are used as a guideline for styling your progress bar and status messages. You can copy them directly into your own public/stylesheets folder or copy and paste.
