Class Public methods

accept?(blob)

Implement this method in a concrete subclass. Have it return true when given a blob from which the analyzer can extract metadata.

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 11
def self.accept?(blob)
  false
end

analyze_later?()

Implement this method in concrete subclasses. It will determine if blob analysis should be done in a job or performed inline. By default, analysis is enqueued in a job.

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 17
def self.analyze_later?
  true
end

new(blob)

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 21
def initialize(blob)
  @blob = blob
end

Instance Public methods

metadata()

Override this method in a concrete subclass. Have it return a Hash of metadata.

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 26
def metadata
  raise NotImplementedError
end

Instance Private methods

download_blob_to_tempfile(&block)

Downloads the blob to a tempfile on disk. Yields the tempfile.

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 32
def download_blob_to_tempfile(&block) #:doc:
  blob.open tmpdir: tmpdir, &block
end

logger()

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 36
def logger #:doc:
  ActiveStorage.logger
end

tmpdir()

# File activestorage/lib/active_storage/analyzer.rb, line 40
def tmpdir #:doc:
  Dir.tmpdir
end
