ProvideAssets

Gem to test how to provide assets through an Engine.

Aim : detect issues with sprockets.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'provide_assets'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install provide_assets

If you want the JS include to work, you must provide jquery in your application :

• In Gemfile :

gem 'jquery-rails'

• In a JS manifest :

//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs

Usage

You can test the gem without an external application, lauch the Dummy application :

cd test/dummy
rails server

Then go to the root of the application in your web browser.

The page displayed should include shared assets (if sharing of assets works !) :

• An image.
• Some css.
• A javascript piece of code.

Technical informations

• Assets paths added dynamically with an Engine configuration :

	Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w(
		provide_assets/manifest.js
	)

• Assets sub-paths added in plugin assets configuration file (manifest.js) :

	link_tree ../../images/provide_assets
	link_tree ../../stylesheets/provide_assets
	link_tree ../../javascripts/provide_assets

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
