What is the best strategy for handling large file uploads with Ruby on Rails?

I'm looking for effective strategies to handle large file uploads (between 10 and 40 mbs) effectively with Ruby on Rails.

Ideally I'd like to implement a progress meter and some sort of notification when the transfer is complete.

I have looked at modporter (www.modporter.com), but I'm interested to know if there are other libraries, techniques or best practices.

  • There are a bunch of solutions out there. You can look up this one from the rails way:
