Hey, I am trying to upload an image to Elixir from a form and then to gcs using arc. The form returns an empty response from Elixir on submit. Whenever I upload an image, I get empty parameter from Elixir, please what can be the cause, why is Elixir receiving empty parameters. I am new to using Elixir and Arc, so I will like to confirm if my code is correct.
This is my mix.exs file
{:arc_gcs, "~> 0.1.0"},
{:arc_ecto, "~> 0.11.1"},
{:arc, "~> 0.11.0"}
Then my route for creating the post is
resources “/images”, ImagesController, except: [:new, :edit]
My Images Controller.create
def create(conn, images_params) do
images_params["id"]})
with {:ok, %Images{} = images} <- Images.create_images(images_params) do
conn
|> put_status(:created)
|> put_resp_header("location", images_path(conn, :show, images))
|> render("show.json", images: images)
end
end
This is my Images Model
schema "image" do
field :name, :string
field :image, Myapp.Avatar.Type
timestamps()
end
@doc false
def changeset(images, attrs) do
images
|> cast(attrs, [:name])
|> validate_required([:name])
|> put_name
|> cast_attachments(attrs, [:image])
end
def put_name(changeset) do
case changeset do
%Ecto.Changeset{
valid?: true,
changes: %{upload: %Plug.Upload{content_type: "image/" <> _, filename: name}}
} ->
put_change(changeset, :name, name)
_ ->
changeset
end
end
def store(%Plug.Upload{} = upload, image) do
Avatar.store({upload, image})
end
def url(image, version) do
Avatar.url({image.name, image}, version)
end
end
And finally my Arc Uploader
@versions [:original]
def __storage, do: Arc.Storage.GCS
def gcs_object_headers(:original, {file, _scope}) do
[content_type: MIME.from_path(file.file_name)]
end
#To add a thumbnail version:
@versions [:original, :thumb]
# Override the bucket on a per definition basis:
# def bucket do
# :custom_bucket_name
# end
# Whitelist file extensions:
def validate({file, _}) do
~w(.jpg .jpeg .gif .png) |> Enum.member?(Path.extname(file.file_name))
end
def transform(:thumb, _file) do
{:convert, "-thumbnail x#{@heights[:thumb]} -gravity center -format jpg"}
end
def transform(:show, _file) do
{:convert, "-strip -resize x#{@heights[:show]} -gravity center -format png"}
end
def storage_dir(version, {_, image}) do
"uploads/posts/images/#{image.id}/#{version}"
end
def filename(_version, {file, _}) do
Path.rootname(file.file_name)
end
end
This is expected to receive the uploaded image from the web and save it on Google Cloud Storage but the I'm still getting an empty parameter. I have been on this for days, any help at all would be really appreciated, please someone should look into this and tell me where I might be getting it wrong.
Thanks
