A simple local file cache plugin for the dragonfly image processing gem.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'dragonfly-cache-plugin'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install dragonfly-cache-plugin
Require the gem somewhere in your code, for rails a good choice is config/initializers/dragonfly.rb
require 'dragonfly/plugin/cache'
And then add the plugin to your dragonfly config
Dragonfly.app.configure do
url_format "/media/:sha/:name"
plugin :dragonfly_cache public_path: Rails.root.join('public')
...
end
By default the UrlFormat adapter is used. It stores the generated files to the app.server.url_format
config. You should configure your reverse proxy (NGINX, Apache etc) to try for the file first and then pass to the dragonfly server. Simple sample NGINX config:
location ~* ^/media/.*\.(png|jpe?g|webp) {
root /var/www/app/public;
expires 1y;
add_header Cache-Control public;
try_files $uri @backend;
}
location @backend {
include /etc/nginx/snippets/proxy_headers.conf;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_pass http://app;
}
CAUTION: make sure to define the url_format before you register the plugin if you use the adapter url_format
You should also consider not using the plugin in test and development by e.g.
if Rails.application.config.action_controller.perform_caching
plugin :dragonfly_cache, public_path: Rails.root.join('public')
end
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
