sprockets

Question If you've used RequireJS with a Rails 3 (esp 3.1) app, how is that working for you? Any configuration tricks or other gotchas that I need to watch out for? Background I'm contemplating using RequireJS over the Sprockets-based Asset Pipeline in Rails 3.1, specifically for JavaScript code. I have two motivators for this choice: I want to leverage RequireJS' module management for my JS client-side code. I'd like a precompilation system that can follow my JS library code into other contexts. To my surprise, the Asset Pipeline precompiler is a baked-in part of Rails, not a part of

I've been round and round here with trying to get the assets to pre-compile on my production server (straightforward ubuntu install with ruby 1.9.2 and Rails 3.1.1, and tried 3.1.2RC with the new sprockets 2.10 as well). "require_tree argument must be a directory". I've seen other issues related to this on stack but the situation isn't exactly the same and none of the proposed solutions have helped – like create a stub file in the sub folder, then reference only relatively at that point. No luck. And to top it off, of course this works perfectly on all development machines (mac's but with

I ran into a problem deploying on Heroku do to a failure in the rake task rake assets:precompile At the bottom is the error I get if I integrate Rails 3.1 Jquery calendar: https://github.com/themouette/jquery-week-calendar Twitter bootstrap The error happens from uglifier. I suspect that problem could be related to the inclusion of many localizations for the calendar. I worked around the error by setting: # Compress JavaScripts and CSS config.assets.compress = false I was not able to examine the files as the temporary files are cleaned up. I also could not get the debugger in RubyMine to stop

I'm trying to build a mobile application with phonegap, backbone.js and coffeescript. I want to do something like this : class MyApplication.Views.EntriesIndex extends Backbone.View template: load('my/template') //It will load the external file my/template.tpl render: -> $(@el).html(@template()) this I want to load it synchronously. I already seen require.js but I find it's too complicated for this simple think. I seen than I can use JST for a rails application but I don't find how to use it without sprocket and my application must to work on the client side only. What is the better way to

I was building a Rails engine that uses zurb-foundation's stylesheets, and kep hitting the same Sass::Syntax error. This seemed strange because I had followed the same procedure in a Rails application and it was worked on the first try. So I decided to zero in on the isse by starting two new rails projects--one application and one engine--and configure them to use foundation with a minimal amount of setup. I started with 2 clean Rails 3.2.9 projects--one application and one engine --full and configured them both manually for foundations by adding foundation_and_overrides.scss and require -ing

In Rails 3 there was a rake assets:precompile:nodigest task which was compiling assets and writing them without the digest part in /public/assets directory. In Rails 4 this has been removed, and by default all assets are precompiled with digest only. For various reasons I need also non-digested version of some of the assets. Is there any easy way to enable back the old behavior? The version of sprockets-rails used in Rails 4.0.0 no longer supports non-digest assets. Per sprocket-rails's Readme : Only compiles digest filenames. Static non-digest assets should simply live in public So any assets
