shrine.cr
Shrine is a toolkit for file attachments in Crystal applications. Heavily inspired by Shrine for Ruby.
Documentation
https://jetrockets.github.io/shrine.cr
Installation
- 
Add the dependency to your
shard.yml:dependencies: shrine: github: jetrockets/shrine.cr - 
Run
shards install 
Usage
require "shrine"
Shrine.cr is under heavy development!
First of all you should configure Shrine.
Shrine.configure do |config|
  config.storages["cache"] = Storage::FileSystem.new("uploads", prefix: "cache")
  config.storages["store"] = Storage::FileSystem.new("uploads")
end
Now you can use Shrine directly to upload your files.
Shrine.upload(file, "store")
Shrine.upload method supports additional argument just like Shrine.rb. For example we want our file to have a custom filename.
Shrine.upload(file, "store", metadata: { "filename" => "foo.bar" })
Custom uploaders
To implement custom uploader class just inherit it from Shrine. You can override Shrine methods to implement custom logic. Here is an example how to create a custom file location.
class FileImport::AssetUploader < Shrine
  def generate_location(io : IO | UploadedFile, metadata, context, **options)
    name = super(io, metadata, **options)
    File.join("imports", context[:model].id.to_s, name)
  end
end
FileImport::AssetUploader.upload(file, "store", context: { model: YOUR_ORM_MODEL } })
S3 storage
Creating a Client
client = Awscr::S3::Client.new("region", "key", "secret")
For S3 compatible services, like DigitalOcean Spaces or Minio, you'll need to set a custom endpoint:
client = Awscr::S3::Client.new("nyc3", "key", "secret", endpoint: "https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com")
Create a S3 storage
The storage is initialized by providing your bucket and client:
storage = Shrine::Storage::S3.new(bucket: "bucket_name", client: client, prefix: "prefix")
Sometimes you'll want to add additional upload options to all S3 uploads. You can do that by passing the :upload_options option:
storage = Shrine::Storage::S3.new(bucket: "bucket_name", client: client, upload_options: { "x-amz-acl"=> "public-read" })
You can tell S3 storage to make uploads public:
storage = Shrine::Storage::S3.new(bucket: "bucket_name", client: client, public: true)
ORM usage example
Currently ORM adapters are not implmented.

Plugins
Shrine.cr has a plugins interface similar to Shrine.rb. You can extend functionality of uploaders inherited from Shrine and also extend UploadedFile class.
Determine MIME Type
The DetermineMimeType plugin is used to get mime type of uploaded file in several ways.
require "shrine/plugins/determine_mime_type"
class Uploader < Shrine
  load_plugin(
    Shrine::Plugins::DetermineMimeType,
    analyzer: Shrine::Plugins::DetermineMimeType::Tools::File
  )
  finalize_plugins!
end
Analyzers
The following analyzers are accepted:
| Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| File| (Default). Uses the file utility to determine the MIME type from file contents. It is installed by default on most operating systems. |
| Mime | Uses the MIME.from_filename method to determine the MIME type from file.|
| ContentType | Retrieves the value of the #content_type attribute of the IO object. Note that this value normally comes from the "Content-Type" request header, so it's not guaranteed to hold the actual MIME type of the file. |
Add Metadata
The AddMetadata plugin provides a convenient method for extracting and adding custom metadata values.
require "base64"
require "shrine/plugins/add_metadata"
class Uploader < Shrine
  load_plugin(Shrine::Plugins::AddMetadata)
  add_metadata :signature, -> {
    Base64.encode(io.gets_to_end)
  }
  finalize_plugins!
end
The above will add "signature" to the metadata hash.
image.metadata["signature"]
Multiple values
You can also extract multiple metadata values at once.
class Uploader < Shrine
  load_plugin(Shrine::Plugins::AddMetadata)
  add_metadata :multiple_values, -> {
    text = io.gets_to_end
    Shrine::UploadedFile::MetadataType{
      "custom_1" => text,
      "custom_2" => text * 2
    }
  }
  finalize_plugins!
end
image.metadata["custom_1"]
image.metadata["custom_2"]
Store Dimensions
The StoreDimensions plugin extracts dimensions of uploaded images and stores them into the metadata. Additional dependency https://github.com/jetrockets/fastimage.cr needed for this plugin.
require "fastimage"
require "shrine/plugins/store_dimensions"
class Uploader < Shrine
  load_plugin(Shrine::Plugins::StoreDimensions,
    analyzer: Shrine::Plugins::StoreDimensions::Tools::FastImage)
  finalize_plugins!
end
image.metadata["width"]
image.metadata["height"]
Analyzers
The following analyzers are accepted:
| Name | Description |
| --- | --- |
| FastImage | (Default) Uses the FastImage. |
| Identify | A built-in solution that wrapps ImageMagick's identify command. |
