A cheap knock off of the default validates_length_of validator, but checks the filesize of a Carrierwave attachment

README.md

Note that this validation runs both after the file is uploaded and after CarrierWave has processed the image. If your base uploader includes a filter to resize the image then the validation will be run against the resized image, not the original one that was uploaded. If this causes a problem for you, then you should avoid using a resizing filter on the base uploader and put any specific size requirements in a version instead.

So instead of this:

require 'carrierwave/processing/mini_magick'

class LogoUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base
  include CarrierWave::MiniMagick

  process :quality => 80
  process :resize_to_limit => [800, 800]
  process :convert => 'png'
  
  # ...
end

Do this:

require 'carrierwave/processing/mini_magick'

class LogoUploader < CarrierWave::Uploader::Base
  include CarrierWave::MiniMagick

  process :convert => 'png'

  version :medium do
    process :quality => 80
    process :resize_to_limit => [800, 800]
  end

  # ...

end

Anyone using this with multiple files upload from Carrierwave? :)

Im getting the same error as @vinayvinay

It seems that the asset was removed out of app and file_size_validator try to validate an nonexistent file.

@osnysantos I was experiencing the same error because the asset was not present (the url was broken). I added the the line next if value.present? && !(value.file.exists?) inside the validate_each loop so I don't get an exception when the file url is broken. It seems to work fine so far. If the url is broken I don't need to validate the file size.

checks.each do |key, validity_check|
      next unless check_value = options[key]

      value ||= [] if key == :maximum
      next if value.present? && !(value.file.exists?)

      value_size = value.size
      next if value_size.send(validity_check, check_value)

Hello @chrisbloom7
As we would like to use your source code present on this page, is there any chance that we can get a license for the code written by you into the following file file_size_validator.rb ? We couldn't find any.
Thank you!

Hey @pinty,

it's possible to replace it with file_validators gem mentioned above by it's author which has the MIT license.
Besides from that it's properly packaged, has specs and a dedicated issue tracker.

PS: I'm pretty sure I'm reading a document you (co-)authored 😉
