rails 4 asset pipeline vendor assets images are not being precompiled

Question

I\'m using rails 4 & ruby 1.9.3 for my application and fancybox2-rails gem, but there\'s a general problem with asset pipeline. If I run rake task

Answer 1

It sounds Sporker can't autoload images from vendor/assets/images.

2.2 Asset Organization Pipeline assets can be placed inside an application in one of three locations: app/assets, lib/assets or vendor/assets.

app/assets is for assets that are owned by the application, such as custom images, JavaScript files or stylesheets.

lib/assets is for your own libraries' code that doesn't really fit into the scope of the application or those libraries which are shared across applications.

vendor/assets is for assets that are owned by outside entities, such as code for JavaScript plugins and CSS frameworks

From the description come from guides.rubyonrails.org, I don't think they ignored vendor/assets/images with no intention.

So I just added the follow line:

#config/application.rb
config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("vendor", "assets", "images")

And, I solved my problem. I hope this will work for you.
