ForcedFileFromUrl

Tiny hack to convert StringIO objects into Tempfile when using OpenURI to open files less than 10kb. Inspired by this Stackoverflow answer.

Use Case

When using OpenURI to #open a file that is less than 10kb will return a StringIO but in the case when we need to know the #path of the file StringIO won't work.

Use this Gem's #forced_file_from_url to write the StringIO data to a Tempfile and get the object you expected from OpenURI.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'forced_file_from_url'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install forced_file_from_url

Usage

Include ForcedFileFromUrl in your code and use forced_file_from_url(url). This method will always return a Tempfile.
