**A WIP file upload and attachment library for Ecto**
## Installation
The package can be installed by adding `honu` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:honu, "~> 0.3.2"}
]
end
```
## Usage
After installation it's necessary to create a folder in where the files will reside for the default Storage behaviour.
```bash
mkdir storage
touch storage/.keep
echo '# Honu storage\n/storage/*\n!/storage/.keep' >> .gitignore
```
After, generate the migration file for the blobs table:
```bash
mix ecto.gen.migration create_honu_blobs
```
And change the file to the following:
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Repo.Migrations.CreateHonuBlobs do
use Ecto.Migration
require Honu.Migration
def change do
Honu.Migration.create_blobs_table()
end
end
```
Configure the environments accordingly:
```elixir
# dev.exs
config :honu, Honu.Storage,
storage: Honu.Storage.Disk,
repo: MyApp.Repo,
root_dir: "storage"
```
Optional, Honu also was support to serve the attachments.
To do so, add the following configuration to the necessary environments:
```elixir
config :honu, HonuWeb.Storage,
storage: HonuWeb.Storage.Disk,
# You can use mix phx.gen.secret to generate the secret
secret_key_base: "SECRET HERE",
repo: MyApp.Repo,
service_urls_expire_in: 300
```
And finally forward the requests to the Honu app.
In phoenix it's possible to do it with the following:
```elixir
# router.ex
scope "/honu" do
pipe_through :browser
forward "/", HonuWeb.Router
end
```
Since HonuWeb.Router is just a plug app, it's also possible to add it to other plug apps besides phoenix.
If it's done so, it's important to add CSRF protection for the delete endpoint.
