title: `Shrine` 3.0.0¶ ↑

This guide covers all the changes in the 3.0.0 version of Shrine. If you’re currently using Shrine 2.x, see {Upgrading to Shrine 3.x}[https://shrinerb.com/docs/upgrading-to-3] for instructions on how to upgrade.

Major features¶ ↑

Derivatives¶ ↑

The new {derivatives}[https://shrinerb.com/docs/plugins/derivatives] plugin has been added for storing additional processed files alongside the main file.

Shrine.plugin :derivatives

class ImageUploader < Shrine
  Attacher.derivatives_processor do |original|
    magick = ImageProcessing::MiniMagick.source(original) 

    {
      large:  magick.resize_to_limit!(800, 800),
      medium: magick.resize_to_limit!(500, 500),
      small:  magick.resize_to_limit!(300, 300),
    }
  end
end

photo = Photo.new(photo_params)
photo.image_derivatives! # creates derivatives
photo.save

This is a rewrite of the {versions} plugin, bringing numerous improvements:

processed files are separated from the main file

“‘rb photo.image_data #=> # { # “id”: “original.jpg”, # “storage”: “store”, # “metadata”: { … }, # “derivatives”: { # “large”: { “id”: “large.jpg”, “storage”: “store”, “metadata”: { … } }, # “medium”: { “id”: “medium.jpg”, “storage”: “store”, “metadata”: { … } }, # “small”: { “id”: “small.jpg”, “storage”: “store”, “metadata”: { … } } # } # }

photo.image #=>

processing is decoupled from promotion

rb photo = Photo.create(image: file) # promote original file to permanent storage photo.image_derivatives! # generate derivatives after promotion photo.save # save derivatives data

ability to add or remove processed files at any point

“‘rb class ImageUploader < Shrine Attacher.derivatives_processor :thumbnails do |original| # … end

Attacher.derivatives_processor :crop do |original, left:, top:, width:, height:|
  vips = ImageProcessing::Vips.source(original)

  { cropped: vips.crop!(left, top, width, height) }
end

end rb photo.image_derivatives!(:thumbnails) photo.image_derivatives #=> { large: …, medium: …, small: … } photo.save

# … sometime later …

photo.image_derivatives!(:crop, left: 0, top: 0, width: 300, height: 300) photo.image_derivatives #=> { large: …, medium: …, small: …, cropped: … } photo.save “‘

possibility of uploading processed files to different storage

“‘rb class ImageUploader < Shrine # specify storage for all derivatives Attacher.derivatives_storage :other_store

# or specify storage per derivative
Attacher.derivatives_storage { |derivative| :other_store }

end rb photo = Photo.create(image: file) photo.image.storage_key #=> :store

photo.image_derivatives! photo.image_derivatives.storage_key #=> :other_store “‘

Attacher redesign¶ ↑

The {Shrine::Attacher} class has been rewritten and can now be used without models:

attacher = Shrine::Attacher.new
attacher.attach(file)
attacher.file #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile>

The Attacher#data, Attacher#load_data, and Attacher.from_data methods have been added for dumping and loading the attached file:

# dump attached file into a serializable Hash
data = attacher.data #=> { "id" => "abc123.jpg", "storage" => "store", "metadata" => { ... } }

# initialize attacher from attached file data...
attacher = Shrine::Attacher.from_data(data)
attacher.file #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile id="abc123.jpg" storage=:store metadata={...}>

# ...or load attached file into an existing attacher
attacher = Shrine::Attacher.new
attacher.load_data(data)
attacher.file #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile>

Several more methods have been added:

Attacher#attach – attaches the file directly to permanent storage
Attacher#attach_cached – extracted from Attacher#assign
Attacher#upload – calls Shrine#upload, passing :record and :name context
Attacher#file – alias for Attacher#get
Attacher#cache_key – returns temporary storage key (:cache by default)
Attacher#store_key – returns permanent storage key (:store by default)

Column¶ ↑

The new {column} plugin adds the ability to serialize attached file data, in format suitable for writing into a database column.

Shrine.plugin :column

# dump attached file data into a JSON string
data = attacher.column_data #=> '{"id":"abc123.jpg","storage":"store","metadata":{...}}'

# initialize attacher from attached file data...
attacher = Shrine::Attacher.from_column(data)
attacher.file #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile id="abc123.jpg" storage=:store metadata={...}>

# ...or load attached file into an existing attacher
attacher = Shrine::Attacher.new
attacher.load_column(data)
attacher.file #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile>

Entity¶ ↑

The new {entity} plugin adds support for immutable structs, which are commonly used with ROM, Hanami and dry-rb.

Shrine.plugin :entity

class Photo < Hanami::Entity
  include Shrine::Attachment(:image)
end

photo = Photo.new(image_data: '{"id":"abc123.jpg","storage":"store","metadata":{...}}')
photo.image #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile id="abc123.jpg" storage=:store ...>

Model¶ ↑

The new {model} plugin adds support for mutable structs, which is used by activerecord and sequel plugins.

Shrine.plugin :model

class Photo < Struct.new(:image_data)
  include Shrine::Attachment(:image)
end

photo = Photo.new
photo.image = file
photo.image #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile id="abc123.jpg" storage=:cache ...>
photo.image_data #=> #=> '{"id":"abc123.jpg", "storage":"cache", "metadata":{...}}'

Backgrounding rewrite¶ ↑

The {backgrounding} plugin has been rewritten for more flexibility and simplicity. The new usage is much more explicit:

Shrine.plugin :backgrounding
Shrine::Attacher.promote_block do
  PromoteJob.perform_async(self.class.name, record.class.name, record.id, name, file_data)
end
Shrine::Attacher.destroy_block do
  DestroyJob.perform_async(self.class.name, data)
end

class PromoteJob
  include Sidekiq::Worker

  def perform(attacher_class, record_class, record.id, name, file_data)
    attacher_class = Object.const_get(attacher_class)
    record         = Object.const_get(record_class).find(record_id) # if using Active Record

    attacher = attacher_class.retrieve(model: record, name: name, file: file_data)
    attacher.atomic_promote
  rescue Shrine::AttachmentChanged, ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound
    # attachment has changed or the record has been deleted, nothing to do
  end
end

class DestroyJob
  include Sidekiq::Worker

  def perform(attacher_class, data)
    attacher_class = Object.const_get(attacher_class)

    attacher = attacher_class.from_data(data)
    attacher.destroy
  end
end

There are several main differences compared to the old implementation:

we are in charge of passing the record to the background job
we can access the attacher before promotion
we can react to errors that caused promotion to abort

We can now also register backgrounding hooks on an attacher instance, allowing us to pass additional parameters to the background job:

photo = Photo.new(photo_params)

photo.image_attacher.promote_block do |attacher|
  PromoteJob.perform_async(
    attacher.class.name,
    attacher.record.class.name,
    attacher.record.id,
    attacher.name,
    attacher.file_data,
    current_user.id, # <== parameters from the controller
  )
end

photo.save # will call our instance-level backgrounding hook

Persistence interface¶ ↑

The persistence plugins (activerecord, sequel) now implement a unified persistence interface:

Method	Description
‘Attacher#persist`	persists attachment data
‘Attacher#atomic_persist`	persists attachment data if attachment hasn’t changed
‘Attacher#atomic_promote`	promotes cached file and atomically persists changes

The “atomic” methods use the new {atomic_helpers} plugin, and are useful for background jobs. For example, this is how we’d use them to implement metadata extraction in the background in a concurrency-safe way:

MetadataJob.perform_async(
  attacher.class.name,
  attacher.record.class.name,
  attacher.record.id,
  attacher.name,
  attacher.file_data,
)

class MetadataJob
  include Sidekiq::Worker

  def perform(attacher_class, record_class, record_id, name, file_data)
    attacher_class = Object.const_get(attacher_class)
    record         = Object.const_get(record_class).find(record_id) # if using Active Record

    attacher = attacher_class.retrieve(model: record, name: name, file: file_data)
    attacher.refresh_metadata! # extract metadata
    attacher.atomic_persist    # persist if attachment hasn't changed
  rescue Shrine::AttachmentChanged, ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound
    # attachment has changed or record has been deleted, nothing to do
  end
end

Other new plugins¶ ↑

The new {mirroring} plugin has been added for replicating uploads and deletes to other storages.

“‘rb Shrine.storages = { cache: …, store: …, backup: … }

Shrine.plugin :mirroring, mirror: { store: :backup } rb file = Shrine.upload(io, :store) # uploads to :store and :backup file.delete # deletes from :store and :backup “‘

The new {multi_cache} plugin has been added for allowing an attacher to accept files from additional temporary storages.

“‘rb Shrine.storages = { cache: …, cache_one: …, cache_two: …, store: … }

Shrine.plugin :multi_cache, additional_cache: [:cache_one, :cache_two] rb photo.image = { “id” => “…”, “storage” => “cache”, “metadata” => { … } } photo.image.storage_key #=> :cache # or photo.image = { “id” => “…”, “storage” => “cache_one”, “metadata” => { … } } photo.image.storage_key #=> :cache_one # or photo.image = { “id” => “…”, “storage” => “cache_two”, “metadata” => { … } } photo.image.storage_key #=> :cache_two “‘

The new {form_assign} plugin has been added for assigning files directly from form params.

rb Shrine.plugin :form_assign rb attacher = photo.image_attacher attacher.form_assign({ "image" => file, "title" => "...", "description" => "..." }) attacher.file #=> #<Shrine::UploadedFile id="..." storage=:cache ...>

Other features¶ ↑

Model file assignment can now be configured to upload directly to permanent storage.

rb Shrine.plugin :model, cache: false rb photo.image = file photo.image.storage_key #=> :store (permanent storage)

New Shrine.download_response method has been added to the download_endpoint plugin for generating file response from the controller.

rb Rails.application.routes.draw do get "/attachments" => "files#download" end “‘rb class FilesController < ApplicationController def download # … we can now perform things like authentication here … set_rack_response Shrine.download_response(env) end

private

def set_rack_response((status, headers, body))
  self.status = status
  self.headers.merge!(headers)
  self.response_body = body
end

end “‘

The Attacher#refresh_metadata! method has been added to refresh_metadata plugin. It refreshes metadata and writes new attached file data back into the data attribute.

rb attacher.file.refresh_metadata! attacher.write # can now be shortened to attacher.refresh_metadata!

Including a Shrine::Attachment module now defines a .<name>_attacher class method on the target class.

rb class Photo include ImageUploader::Attachment(:image) end rb Photo.image_attacher #=> #<ImageUploader::Attacher ...>

The attachment data serializer is now configurable (by default JSON standard library is used):

“‘rb require “oj” # github.com/ohler55/oj

Shrine.plugin :column, serializer: Oj “‘

It’s now possible to pass options to the validate block via the :validate option:

rb attacher.assign(file, validate: { foo: "bar" }) rb class MyUploader < Shrine Attacher.validate do |**options| options #=> { foo: "bar" } end end

Validation can now be skipped on assignment by passing validate: false.

rb attacher.attach(file, validate: false) # skip validation

Closing the uploaded file can now be prevented by passing close: false to Shrine#upload.
Uploaded file can now be automatically deleted by passing delete: true to Shrine#upload.
New Attacher#file! method has been added for retrieving the attached file and raising and exception if it doesn’t exist.
New Derivation#opened method has been added for retrieving an opened derivative in derivation_endpoint plugin.
New Storage#delete_prefixed method has been added for deleting all files in specified directory.

rb storage.delete_prefixed("some_directory/")

Performance improvements¶ ↑

The attached file is now parsed and loaded from record column only once, which can greatly improve performance if the same attached file is being accessed multiple times.

rb photo = Photo.find(photo_id) photo.image # parses and loads attached file photo.image # returns memoized attached file

The S3#open method doesn’t perform a #head_obect request anymore.
The derivation_endpoint plugin doesn’t perform a Storage#exists? call anymore when :upload is enabled.
The download_endpoint plugin doesn’t perform a Storage#exists? call anymore.

Other Improvements¶ ↑

Core improvements¶ ↑

Shrine now works again with MRI 2.3.
The memory storage from the shrine-memory gem has been merged into core.

rb # Gemfile gem "shrine-memory" # this can be removed

The Attacher#assign method now accepts cached file data as a Hash.

“‘rb photo.image = { “id” => “…”, “storage” => “cache”, “metadata” => { … } } ““

An UploadedFile object can now be initialized with symbol keys.

rb Shrine.uploaded_file(id: "...", storage: :store, metadata: { ... })

The temporary storage doesn’t need to be defined anymore if it’s not used.
Any changes to Shrine.storages will now be applied to existing Shrine and Attacher instances.
When copying the S3 object to another location, any specified upload options will now be applied.
Deprecation of passing unknown options to FileSystem#open has been reverted. This allows users to continue using FileSystem storage in tests as a mock storage.
The Shrine#upload method now infers file extension from filename metadata, making possible to use filename to specify file extension.

rb file = uploader.upload(StringIO.new("some text"), metadata: { "filename" => "file.txt" }) file.id #=> "2a2467ee6acbc5cb.txt"

The Shrine.opts hash is now deep-copied on subclassing. This allows plugins to freely mutate hashes and arrays in Shrine.opts, knowing they won’t be shared across subclasses.
The down dependency has been updated to ~> 5.0.
The Shrine::Attachment[] method has been added as an alternative syntax for creating attachment modules.

rb class Photo include ImageUploader::Attachment[:image] end

Plugin improvements¶ ↑

The activerecord plugin now works with Active Record 3.
Callback code from activerecord and sequel plugin has been moved into attacher methods, allowing the user to override them.
Attacher#(activerecord|sequel)_before_save
Attacher#(activerecord|sequel)_after_save
Attacher#(activerecord|sequel)_after_destroy
The url_options plugin now allows you to override URL options by deleting them.

rb uploaded_file.url(response_content_disposition: "attachment") “‘rb plugin :url_options, store: -> (io, options) { disposition = options.delete(:response_content_disposition, “inline”)

{
  response_content_disposition: ContentDisposition.format(
    disposition: disposition,
    filename:    io.original_filename,
  )
}

} “‘

The :upload_options hash passed to the uploader is now merged with any options defined with the upload_options plugin.
The default_storage now evaluates the storage block in context of the Attacher instance.
New Attacher.default_cache and Attacher.default_store methods have been added to the default_storage plugin for declaratively setting default storage.

rb Attacher.default_cache { ... } Attacher.default_store { ... }

The derivation_endpoint plugin now handles string derivation names.
The Derivation#upload method from derivation_endpoint plugin now accepts additional uploader options
The Derivation#upload method from derivation_endpoint plugin now accepts any IO-like object.
The derivation_endpoint plugin doesn’t re-open File objects returned in derivation block anymore.
The instrumentation plugin now instruments UploadedFile#open calls as a new open.shrine event. UploadedFile#download is still instrumented as download.shrine.
The upload.shrine event now has :metadata on the top level in instrumentation plugin.
The width & height validators in store_dimensions plugin don’t require UploadedFile#width and UploadedFile#height methods to be defined anymore, only that the corresponding metadata exists.
Any options passed to Attacher#attach_cached are now forwarded to metadata extraction when restore_cached_data plugin is loaded.
The infer_extension plugin now works correctly with pretty_location plugin when pretty_location was loaded after infer_extension.
The pretty_location plugin now accepts :class_underscore option for underscoring class names.

“‘rb plugin :pretty_location # “blogpost/aa357797-5845-451b-8662-08eecdc9f762/image/493g82jf23.jpg”

plugin :pretty_location, class_underscore: :true # “blog_post/aa357797-5845-451b-8662-08eecdc9f762/image/493g82jf23.jpg” “‘

You can now load multiple persistence plugins simulatenously, and the correct one will be activated during persistence.

Backwards compatibility¶ ↑
