How to upload remote file from url with ActiveStorage Rails

class Medium < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_one_attached :image
end

Attach remote file

with ‘require open-uri’

require 'open-uri'
file = open('https://eq8.eu/some-image.jpg')

medium = Medium.last
medium.image.attach(io: file, filename: 'some-image.jpg')

# or
medium.image.attach(io: file, filename: 'some-image.jpg', content_type: 'image/jpg')

Or without require

require 'uri'

file = URI.open('https://eq8.eu/some-image.jpg')

medium = Medium.last
medium.image.attach(io: file, filename: 'some-image.jpg')

# or
medium.image.attach(io: file, filename: 'some-image.jpg', content_type: 'image/jpg')

Attach local file

medium = Medium.last
medium.image.attach(io: File.open("/tmp/some-image.jpg"), filename: "some-image.jpg", content_type: "image/jpg")
