cannot print database records in ruby on rails

Question

Am trying to print Database records. When I run the code below from retrieve_all.html

I can print my sent name but can't print the attachment records. all am seeing in the command prompt is

select 'attachments',*From 'attachments'

my name: is Nancy More
my all: #<Attachment::ActiveRecord_Relation:0x090d4820>

it seems that @attachment variable is empty. Any idea on what is going on I deally I should also be printing id, filename etc.

print('fid: ', @attachment.id)
print('fname: ', @attachment.filename)

here is the code.

def retrieve_all
    name = 'nancy More'
    print('my name is: ', name)
    @attachment = Attachment.all
    print('my all: ', @attachment)

    # providing that gem 'jbuilder', '~> 2.0'  in the gemfile and display records in json
    #render json: @attachment = Attachment.all


end

Answer 1

The above code posted is working fine. The issue was caused by images that was stored in the database as binary.
