I'm a bit confused as to where to put a jQuery framework like Galleria in Rails 3.1 's new Asset Pipeline ? I know it, technically, should go into /vendors/assets/javascripts but , it is my understanding that, the Galleria folder with the jQuery & themes wants to be in root ( /galleria ) of the live site in order to work correctly. Also, while we're at it, where to put the following script so it will appear only on the page(s) with a gallery? <script> $('#gallery').galleria({ width:500, height:500 }); </script> Edit : Surprised there's no response!?! Maybe Galleria isn't that popular? These

If I'm using //=require_tree . in application.css, is there a way to exclude particular files other than resorting to //=require_directory and tree organization? Perhaps something like //= require_tree ., {except: 'something'} This is possible with Sprocket's new stub directive which is available in Sprockets v2.2.0 and up. However, Rails 3.2 will only ever use Sprockets v2.1.3 which does not have this feature. As of now, the current Edge Rails has the stub directive and it will officially be in Rails 4.0 and above. Usage: //= require jquery //= require_tree . //= stub unwanted_js stub

Since I updated several gems all tests fail with the error: ActionView::Template::Error: Asset was not declared to be precompiled in production. Add Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w( favicons/manifest.json.erb ) to config/initializers/assets.rb and restart your server app/views/layouts/_faviconsheader.html.erb:14:in _app_views_layouts__faviconsheader_html_erb__1320 app/views/layouts/application.html.erb:21:in _app_views_layouts_application_html_erb__4340 The error seems to refer to the partial _faviconsheader.html.erb that includes the line: <%= content_tag :link, nil, rel:

I cannot seem to find a way to disable the Asset Pipeline in Rails 4.1. I see a lot of information for Rails 3.2. I want to use Grunt/GulpJs and bower to handle all of my assets and I cannot seem to find something for this. Rather I find a decent amount but most of it doesn't apply to me or is broken. There is the half-pipe gem . However half-pipe relies on Rails 4.0 and I'm on Rails 4.1 and I can't find where to force a Gem to install in different version of Rails, if that's even possible. This question expanded into a few more questions than I intended. Basically I just need to know how to

I'm using Rails 3.2.13 and the Rails Asset Pipeline. I want to use the Asset Pipeline so I can use SASS and CoffeeScript and ERB for my assets and have the Pipeline automatically compile them, so I cannot turn off the pipeline in development. I am not precompiling assets in development ever and there is not even a public/assets/ directory. However, when I make changes to an included file, such as to a _partial.html.erb file that is included (rendered) in a layout.html.erb file, without changing the file doing the including itself (in this example layout.html.erb ), Sprockets doesn't detect the
