middleman-sprockets
is an extension for the Middleman static site generator that allows support for Sprockets in your assets.
If you're just getting started, install the middleman
gem and generate a new project:
gem install middleman
middleman init MY_PROJECT
If you already have a Middleman project: Add gem "middleman-sprockets"
to your Gemfile
and run bundle install
activate :sprockets
If you want to use, middleman-sprockets
you need to configure it first - See
Configuration. If you want to use middleman-sprockets
with
bower, you need to import assets first. The path is relative to your
bower
-directory.
sprockets.import_asset <path>
Given vendor/assets/components
as bower
-directory and jquery
as
component-name, you would import the jquery
production version with:
sprockets.append_path 'vendor/assets/components'
sprockets.import_asset 'jquery/dist/jquery'
If you tell sprockets
just about the name of the component, it will make thos
files available which are given in the main
-section of the bower.json
-file.
sprockets.append_path 'vendor/assets/components'
sprockets.import_asset 'jquery'
If you need to tell sprockets
to use an individual output path for your
asset, you can pass #import_asset
a block. This block gets the logical path
as
Pathname
and needs to return the relative output path for the asset as String
or
Pathname
.
sprockets.append_path 'vendor/assets/components'
# return logical path
sprockets.import_asset 'jquery/dist/jquery' do |logical_path|
# => prefix/jquery/dist/jquery
Pathname.new('prefix') + logical_path
end
Be careful if you are using bower
-components which place their assets in
non-standard-directories. Fonts should be placed in fonts
, Stylesheets in
stylesheets
or css
, JavaScript-files in javascripts
or js
and images in
images
. If you have got a svg
-font in a non-standard-directory you might
need to use the #import_asset
-call with the block to place it in the correct
directory.
