POSyntax error in model and controller after setting up Paperclip Gem
text
Body
copied!<p>I'm burning through the onemonthrails tutorial. And I've just installed the paperclip gem and set up the model with some validations. I thought I followed the tut exactly but when I go into the localhost:3000/pins I get this weird syntax error that points to both the model and the controller. I didn't have this problem before the paperclip install...</p> <p>Here's the error:</p> <pre><code>SyntaxError (C:/Sites/code/omrails/app/models/pin.rb:7: syntax error, unexpected '}', expecting tASSOC): app/controllers/pins_controller.rb:9:in `index' </code></pre> <p>Here's the github branch, if you go into the master you can see the code before I installed paperclip (when it was working fine):</p> <p><a href="https://github.com/justuseapen/omrails/tree/error" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/justuseapen/omrails/tree/error</a></p> <p>EDIT Here's the offending code from the model:</p> <pre><code>class Pin < ActiveRecord::Base validates :description, presence: true validates :user_id, presence: true validates_attachment :image, presence: true content_type: {content_type['image/jpeg','image/jpg','image/png','image/gif']} size: {less_than: 5.megabytes } belongs_to :user has_attached_file :image, styles: {medium:"320x240"} end </code></pre> <p>And from the controller:</p> <pre><code> class PinsController < ApplicationController before_filter :authenticate_user!, except: [:index] before_action :set_pin, only: [:show, :edit, :update, :destroy] # GET /pins # GET /pins.json def index @pins = Pin.all end # GET /pins/1 # GET /pins/1.json def show end # GET /pins/new def new @pin = current_user.pins.new end # GET /pins/1/edit def edit @pin=current_user.pins.find(params[:id]) end # POST /pins # POST /pins.json def create @pin = current_user.pins.new(pin_params) respond_to do |format| if @pin.save format.html { redirect_to @pin, notice: 'Pin was successfully created.' } format.json { render action: 'show', status: :created, location: @pin } else format.html { render action: 'new' } format.json { render json: @pin.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity } end end end # PATCH/PUT /pins/1 # PATCH/PUT /pins/1.json def update @pin=current_user.pins.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |format| if @pin.update(pin_params) format.html { redirect_to @pin, notice: 'Pin was successfully updated.' } format.json { head :no_content } else format.html { render action: 'edit' } format.json { render json: @pin.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity } end end end # DELETE /pins/1 # DELETE /pins/1.json def destroy @pin=current_user.pins.find(params[:id]) @pin.destroy respond_to do |format| format.html { redirect_to pins_url } format.json { head :no_content } end end private # Use callbacks to share common setup or constraints between actions. def set_pin @pin = Pin.find(params[:id]) end # Never trust parameters from the scary internet, only allow the white list through. def pin_params params.require(:pin).permit(:description, :image) end end </code></pre> <p>SOLUTION:</p> <p>Ok. So I'm not sure what the problem was, but I rewrote the code like so and it worked:</p> <pre><code> validates :description, presence: true validates :user_id, presence: true has_attached_file :image, styles: { medium: "320x240>"} validates_attachment :image, presence: true, content_type: { content_type: ['image/jpeg', 'image/jpg', 'image/png', 'image/gif'] }, size: { less_than: 5.megabytes } belongs_to :user end </code></pre>
