Change the ActiveStorage Controller Path

Recently, there was an addition which makes the route prefix configurable: https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/7dd9916c0d5e5d149bdde8cbeec42ca49cf3f6ca

Just in master branch now, but should be integrated into ~> 5.2.2 have been integrated into Rails 6.0.0 and higher.

Then, it's just a matter of configuration:

Rails.application.configure do
  config.active_storage.routes_prefix = '/whereever'
end

Monkey patching is always on your side 😉.

Just for interest with next patch, I could change ActiveStorage Controller path:

module MapperMonkeypatch
  def map_match(paths, options)
    paths.collect! do |path|
      path.is_a?(String) ? path.sub('/rails/active_storage/', '/custom_path/') : path
    end
    super
  end
end

ActionDispatch::Routing::Mapper.prepend(MapperMonkeypatch)

and everything seems works 🙂.
