Converting PHP to Rails

[roher4]

Hi,

How would I go about converting this PHP into RoR? I'm just starting out and am a little confused.

Here's the code I want to convert:

<?php  
$file_name = substr ( md5(uniqid(rand(),1)), 5, 15); 
$uploaddir = './uploads/';
$file = basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']);
$newname = $file_name . $file;
$uploadfile = $uploaddir . $newname;
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name'], $uploadfile)) {        
$imagepath =  http://example.com/uploads/{$newname};
}
print $imagepath;?>

Looks like a file upload, you can start by looking at the gems: carrier wave, paperclip.

I could teach you to do it manually, but your code will suck compared to theirs.
