Dependencies: How to create a fog directory

[ebbnormal]

Hello. I am simply wondering if I have to use Fog in order to use this Gem. And if yes, how do I know what to put for the following item:

 heroku config:add FOG_DIRECTORY=xxxx

as I am getting the following error when I run bundle exec rake assets:precompile

AssetSync::Config::Invalid: Fog provider can't be blank, Fog directory can't be blank

I basically just don't know where to put the following code in my Rails app:

require 'rubygems'
require 'fog'

# create a connection
connection = Fog::Storage.new({
  :provider                 => 'AWS',
  :aws_access_key_id        => YOUR_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
  :aws_secret_access_key    => YOUR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
})

# First, a place to contain the glorious details
directory = connection.directories.create(
  :key    => "fog-demo-#{Time.now.to_i}", # globally unique name
  :public => true
)

This is that I have in an initializer

begin
  require "asset_sync"
rescue LoadError
  # Do nothing
end
require "fog/aws"

if defined?(AssetSync)
  AssetSync.configure do |config|
    config.fog_provider           = 'AWS'
    config.fog_directory          = Rails.application.secrets.aws_s3_bucket_name

    config.aws_access_key_id      = Rails.application.secrets.aws_access_key_id
    config.aws_secret_access_key  = Rails.application.secrets.aws_access_secret_access_key

    # Increase upload performance by configuring your region
    # config.fog_region = 'eu-west-1'
    #
    # Don't delete files from the store
    # config.existing_remote_files = "keep"

    # Automatically replace files with their equivalent gzip compressed version
    config.gzip_compression = true

    # Use the Rails generated 'manifest.yml' file to produce the list of files to
    # upload instead of searching the assets directory.
    # config.manifest = true
    #
    # Fail silently.  Useful for environments such as Heroku
    # config.fail_silently = true

    # Log silently. Default is `true`. But you can set it to false if more logging message are preferred.
    # Logging messages are sent to `STDOUT` when `log_silently` is falsy
    config.log_silently = false

    puts "AssetSync initialized with bucket #{config.fog_directory}"
  end
end

You can replace calls to Rails.application.secrets with ENV
Asset sync gets fog info from it's own config

You can generate an initializer with
rails g asset_sync:install --provider=AWS
