instance method
to_plain_text
Ruby on Rails 7.2.3
Since v6.0.6Signature
to_plain_text()Converts the attachment to plain text.
attachable = ActiveStorage::Blob.find_by filename: "racecar.jpg"
attachment = ActionText::Attachment.from_attachable(attachable)
attachment.to_plain_text # => "[racecar.jpg]"
Use the caption when set:
attachment = ActionText::Attachment.from_attachable(attachable, caption: "Vroom vroom")
attachment.to_plain_text # => "[Vroom vroom]"
The presentation can be overridden by implementing the attachable_plain_text_representation method:
class Person < ApplicationRecord
include ActionText::Attachable
def attachable_plain_text_representation
"[#{name}]"
end
end
attachable = Person.create! name: "Javan"
attachment = ActionText::Attachment.from_attachable(attachable)
attachment.to_plain_text # => "[Javan]"
