Require tree in asset pipeline

Question

I have a folder in my asset pipeline called typefaces. It works without any additions to application.rb .

In the directory I have different typeface types, like .eof, .ttf, etc in folders, like this

Assets
    Typefaces
        Eof
           ...files
        Ttf
           ...files

Unless the typefaces are in Assets/typefaces they don't become part of asset pipeline. Asset pipeline doesn't go into the subdirectories.

How would I have asset pipeline look beyond assets/typefaces into assets/typefaces/eof, assets/typefaces/ttf etc?

Answer 1

In your app/assets/javascripts/application.js file, try putting:

//= require_tree ../Typefaces

See more: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/asset_pipeline.html

Let me know if that works.

Answer 2

In application.css

/*
*= require_self
*= require_tree ./folder_name/

*/
