Rails项目的耙式资产路线

Question

I may be wrong here, but routes are automatically generated for files in your public directory.

So if this was in your rails project

public/images/cat.jpg

You could literally type " public/images/cat.jpg " and it would appear in the browser. Is there anyway to rake routes and get these asset routes? Or they not actually roots? Do they work differently?

Answer 1

#{RAILS_ROOT}/images/cat.jpg

这样就可以了。

Answer 2

They are not actually routes, they are considered "static assets" and are simply served up as is.

From the Rails asset pipeline documentation :

Any assets under public will be served as static files by the application or web server.

So in the end, there's nothing really special about them; they are merely served up. That's about it.

Also, the URL www.example.com/public/images/cat.jpg will not work, you'll need to ditch the public part, so that it appears like www.example.com/images/cat.jpg , or simply /images/cat.jpg if this is a link.
