ramaze locks uploaded files?


Has anyone else encountered a file locking issue with Ramaze on Windows? All my uploaded files are being locked (I'm using the upload helper btw).

I'm using - Ruby 1.93 - Ramaze-2012.04.14 - Rack-1.4.1

Thanks!


Solution

  • Answering my own question. Looks like the culprit's this line in ramaze/helper/upload.rb

    @realfile = File.new(path) #--->this opens the uploaded/saved file, thus locking it
    

    I patched my local copy of upload.rb with this --

    class UploadedFile
        include Ramaze::Traited
    
        # Suggested file name
        # @return [String]
        attr_reader :filename
    
        # MIME-type
        # @return [String]
        attr_reader :type
    
        # Saved file object
        # @return [File]
        attr_reader :realfile #---> expose the variable so we can close it from the caller
    

    And then in your caller, simply close the file after you save it, like so...

    get_uploaded_files.each_pair{|k, v|
        v.save "upload/#{v.filename}"
        v.realfile.close #close the file handle
    }
    

    I will be submitting a patch soon...
