If you want each +message to have many images, define the `Message` model like this: + +```ruby +class Message < ApplicationRecord + has_many_attached :images +end +``` + +You can create a message with images: + +```ruby +class MessagesController < ApplicationController + def create + message = Message.create!(message_params) + redirect_to message + end + + private + def message_params + params.require(:message).permit(:title, :content, images: []) + end +end +``` + +Call `images.attach` to add new images to an existing message: + +```ruby +@message.images.attach(params[:images]) +``` + +Call `images.attached?` to determine whether a particular message has any images: + +```ruby +@message.images.attached? +``` + +Removing Files +-------------- + +To remove an attachment from a model, call `purge` on the attachment. Removal +can be done in the background if your application is setup to use Active Job. +Purging deletes the blob and the file from the storage service. + +```ruby +# Synchronously destroy the avatar and actual resource files. +user.avatar.purge + +# Destroy the associated models and actual resource files async, via Active Job. +user.avatar.purge_later +``` + +Linking to Files +---------------- + +Generate a permanent URL for the blob that points to the application. Upon +access, a redirect to the actual service endpoint is returned. This indirection +decouples the public URL from the actual one, and allows, for example, mirroring +attachments in different services for high-availability. The redirection has an +HTTP expiration of 5 min. + +```ruby +url_for(user.avatar) +``` + +To create a download link, use the `rails_blob_{path|url}` helper. Using this +helper allows you to set the disposition. + +```ruby +rails_blob_path(user.avatar, disposition: "attachment") +``` + +Transforming Images +------------------- + +To create variation of the image, call `variant` on the Blob. +You can pass any [MiniMagick](https://github.com/minimagick/minimagick) +supported transformation to the method. + +To enable variants, add `mini_magick` to your `Gemfile`: + +```ruby +gem 'mini_magick' +``` + +When the browser hits the variant URL, Active Storage will lazy transform the +original blob into the format you specified and redirect to its new service +location. + +```erb +<%= image_tag user.avatar.variant(resize: "100x100") %> +``` + +Previewing Files +---------------- + +Some non-image files can be previewed: that is, they can be presented as images. +For example, a video file can be previewed by extracting its first frame. Out of +the box, Active Storage supports previewing videos and PDF documents. + +```erb +<ul> + <% @message.files.each do |file| %> + <li> + <%= image_tag file.preview(resize: "100x100>") %> + </li> + <% end %> +</ul> +``` + +WARNING: Extracting previews requires third-party applications, `ffmpeg` for +video and `mutool` for PDFs. These libraries are not provided by Rails. You must +install them yourself to use the built-in previewers. Before you install and use +third-party software, make sure you understand the licensing implications of +doing so. + +Direct Uploads +-------------- + +Active Storage, with its included JavaScript library, supports uploading +directly from the client to the cloud. + +### Direct upload installation + +1. Include `activestorage.js` in your application's JavaScript bundle. + + Using the asset pipeline: + + ```js + //= require activestorage + + ``` + + Using the npm package: + + ```js + import * as ActiveStorage from "activestorage" + ActiveStorage.start() + ``` + +2.

The Run +callback is called before the application code, and the Complete callback is +called after. + +### Default callbacks + +In a default Rails application, the Executor callbacks are used to: + +* track which threads are in safe positions for autoloading and reloading +* enable and disable the Active Record query cache +* return acquired Active Record connections to the pool +* constrain internal cache lifetimes + +Prior to Rails 5.0, some of these were handled by separate Rack middleware +classes (such as `ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ConnectionManagement`), or +directly wrapping code with methods like +`ActiveRecord::Base.connection_pool.with_connection`. The Executor replaces +these with a single more abstract interface. + +### Wrapping application code + +If you're writing a library or component that will invoke application code, you +should wrap it with a call to the executor: + +```ruby +Rails.application.executor.wrap do + # call application code here +end +``` + +TIP: If you repeatedly invoke application code from a long-running process, you +may want to wrap using the Reloader instead. + +Each thread should be wrapped before it runs application code, so if your +application manually delegates work to other threads, such as via `Thread.new` +or Concurrent Ruby features that use thread pools, you should immediately wrap +the block: + +```ruby +Thread.new do + Rails.application.executor.wrap do + # your code here + end +end +``` + +NOTE: Concurrent Ruby uses a `ThreadPoolExecutor`, which it sometimes configures +with an `executor` option. Despite the name, it is unrelated. + +The Executor is safely re-entrant; if it is already active on the current +thread, `wrap` is a no-op. + +If it's impractical to wrap the application code in a block (for +example, the Rack API makes this problematic), you can also use the `run!` / +`complete!` pair: + +```ruby +Thread.new do + execution_context = Rails.application.executor.run! + # your code here +ensure + execution_context.complete! if execution_context +end +``` + +### Concurrency + +The Executor will put the current thread into `running` mode in the Load +Interlock. This operation will block temporarily if another thread is currently +either autoloading a constant or unloading/reloading the application. + +Reloader +-------- + +Like the Executor, the Reloader also wraps application code. If the Executor is +not already active on the current thread, the Reloader will invoke it for you, +so you only need to call one. This also guarantees that everything the Reloader +does, including all its callback invocations, occurs wrapped inside the +Executor. + +```ruby +Rails.application.reloader.wrap do + # call application code here +end +``` + +The Reloader is only suitable where a long-running framework-level process +repeatedly calls into application code, such as for a web server or job queue. +Rails automatically wraps web requests and Active Job workers, so you'll rarely +need to invoke the Reloader for yourself. Always consider whether the Executor +is a better fit for your use case. + +### Callbacks + +Before entering the wrapped block, the Reloader will check whether the running +application needs to be reloaded -- for example, because a model's source file has +been modified. If it determines a reload is required, it will wait until it's +safe, and then do so, before continuing. When the application is configured to +always reload regardless of whether any changes are detected, the reload is +instead performed at the end of the block. + +The Reloader also provides `to_run` and `to_complete` callbacks; they are +invoked at the same points as those of the Executor, but only when the current +execution has initiated an application reload. When no reload is deemed +necessary, the Reloader will invoke the wrapped block with no other callbacks. + +### Class Unload + +The most significant part of the reloading process is the Class Unload, where +all autoloaded classes are removed, ready to be loaded again. This will occur +immediately before either the Run or Complete callback, depending on the +`reload_classes_only_on_change` setting. + +Often, additional reloading actions need to be performed either just before or +just after the Class Unload, so the Reloader also provides `before_class_unload` +and `after_class_unload` callbacks. + +### Concurrency + +Only long-running "top level" processes should invoke the Reloader, because if +it determines a reload is needed, it will block until all other threads have +completed any Executor invocations. + +If this were to occur in a "child" thread, with a waiting parent inside the +Executor, it would cause an unavoidable deadlock: the reload must occur before +the child thread is executed, but it cannot be safely performed while the parent +thread is mid-execution. Child threads should use the Executor instead. + +Framework Behavior +------------------ + +The Rails framework components use these tools to manage their own concurrency +needs too. + +`ActionDispatch::Executor` and `ActionDispatch::Reloader` are Rack middlewares +that wraps the request with a supplied Executor or Reloader, respectively. They +are automatically included in the default application stack. The Reloader will +ensure any arriving HTTP request is served with a freshly-loaded copy of the +application if any code changes have occurred. + +Active Job also wraps its job executions with the Reloader, loading the latest +code to execute each job as it comes off the queue. + +Action Cable uses the Executor instead: because a Cable connection is linked to +a specific instance of a class, it's not possible to reload for every arriving +websocket message. Only the message handler is wrapped, though; a long-running +Cable connection does not prevent a reload that's triggered by a new incoming +request or job. Instead, Action Cable uses the Reloader's `before_class_unload` +callback to disconnect all its connections. When the client automatically +reconnects, it will be speaking to the new version of the code. + +The above are the entry points to the framework, so they are responsible for +ensuring their respective threads are protected, and deciding whether a reload +is necessary. Other components only need to use the Executor when they spawn +additional threads. + +### Configuration + +The Reloader only checks for file changes when `cache_classes` is false and +`reload_classes_only_on_change` is true (which is the default in the +`development` environment). + +When `cache_classes` is true (in `production`, by default), the Reloader is only +a pass-through to the Executor. + +The Executor always has important work to do, like database connection +management. When `cache_classes` and `eager_load` are both true (`production`), +no autoloading or class reloading will occur, so it does not need the Load +Interlock. If either of those are false (`development`), then the Executor will +use the Load Interlock to ensure constants are only loaded when it is safe. + +Load Interlock +-------------- + +The Load Interlock allows autoloading and reloading to be enabled in a +multi-threaded runtime environment. + +When one thread is performing an autoload by evaluating the class definition +from the appropriate file, it is important no other thread encounters a +reference to the partially-defined constant. + +Similarly, it is only safe to perform an unload/reload when no application code +is in mid-execution: after the reload, the `User` constant, for example, may +point to a different class. Without this rule, a poorly-timed reload would mean +`User.new.class == User`, or even `User == User`, could be false. + +Both of these constraints are addressed by the Load Interlock. It keeps track of +which threads are currently running application code, loading a class, or +unloading autoloaded constants. + +Only one thread may load or unload at a time, and to do either, it must wait +until no other threads are running application code. If a thread is waiting to +perform a load, it doesn't prevent other threads from loading (in fact, they'll +cooperate, and each perform their queued load in turn, before all resuming +running together). + +### `permit_concurrent_loads` + +The Executor automatically acquires a `running` lock for the duration of its +block, and autoload knows when to upgrade to a `load` lock, and switch back to +`running` again afterwards. + +Other blocking operations performed inside the Executor block (which includes +all application code), however, can needlessly retain the `running` lock. If +another thread encounters a constant it must autoload, this can cause a +deadlock. + +For example, assuming `User` is not yet loaded, the following will deadlock: + +```ruby +Rails.application.executor.wrap do + th = Thread.new do + Rails.application.executor.wrap do + User # inner thread waits here; it cannot load + # User while another thread is running + end + end + + th.join # outer thread waits here, holding 'running' lock +end +``` + +To prevent this deadlock, the outer thread can `permit_concurrent_loads`. By +calling this method, the thread guarantees it will not dereference any +possibly-autoloaded constant inside the supplied block. The safest way to meet +that promise is to put it as close as possible to the blocking call: + +```ruby +Rails.application.executor.wrap do + th = Thread.new do + Rails.application.executor.wrap do + User # inner thread can acquire the load lock, + # load User, and continue + end + end + + ActiveSupport::Dependencies.interlock.permit_concurrent_loads do + th.join # outer thread waits here, but has no lock + end +end +``` + +Another example, using Concurrent Ruby: + +```ruby +Rails.application.executor.wrap do + futures = 3.times.collect do |i| + Concurrent::Future.execute do + Rails.application.executor.wrap do + # do work here + end + end + end + + values = ActiveSupport::Dependencies.interlock.permit_concurrent_loads do + futures.collect(&:value) + end +end +``` + + +### ActionDispatch::DebugLocks + +If your application is deadlocking and you think the Load Interlock may be +involved, you can temporarily add the ActionDispatch::DebugLocks middleware to +`config/application.rb`: + +```ruby +config.middleware.insert_before Rack::Sendfile, + ActionDispatch::DebugLocks +``` + +If you then restart the application and re-trigger the deadlock condition, +`/rails/locks` will show a summary of all threads currently known to the +interlock, which lock level they are holding or awaiting, and their current +backtrace. + +Generally a deadlock will be caused by the interlock conflicting with some other +external lock or blocking I/O call. Once you find it, you can wrap it with +`permit_concurrent_loads`. + diff --git a/guides/source/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.md b/guides/source/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.md index 9bc87e4bf0..bb4ef26876 100644 --- a/guides/source/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.md +++ b/guides/source/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.md @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ **DO NOT READ THIS FILE ON GITHUB, GUIDES ARE PUBLISHED ON http://guides.rubyonrails.org.** -A Guide for Upgrading Ruby on Rails -=================================== +Upgrading Ruby on Rails +======================= This guide provides steps to be followed when you upgrade your applications to a newer version of Ruby on Rails.
