Uploading videos and document

Question

I am a freshman using ruby-on-rails, I want to build a website that provides users tutor videos. The problem is how can I upload a video or document on my webpage using ruby-on rails, my strategy is to save a link for that video or document in the data base so when I open a page contains a video or document it will upload automatically. I am using Postgresql 9.3

Thanks.
