Hello all,
I’m trying to understand how to include a stylesheet that is inside a
sub
directory in my css assets folder.
The folder to include is app/assets/css/fonts - folder of fonts and a
stylesheet.css
In my app/assets/css/application.css.scss I have included the following
line:
*= require fonts/stylesheet.css
Then when I precompile I get the following:
Compiled fonts/stylesheet.css (0ms) (pid 30638)
But when I hit my app from the browser I get the following:
An ActionView::Template::Error occurred in …:
fonts/stylesheet.css isn’t precompiled
actionpack (3.2.13) lib/sprockets/helpers/rails_helper.rb:142:in
`digest_for’
So I guess my questions is, what is the proper way to include this
stylesheet (and font files) so that all works as it should and I don’t
have
to hack around this.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

This means that the compiled application.css contains the result of
compiling fonts/stylesheet.scss
The error you’re seeing indicates that you’re link directly to
fonts/stylesheet.css (ie the produced HTML contains a tag whose
href is pointing at that file.
If you want to be able to link to css or javascript like this you need
to add the file to the list of items to precompile separately ( there’s
a setting for this in production.rb). Alternately you could just link to
application.css

I had this problem yesterday.
I my /app/views/layouts/application.html.haml I had folowing:
= stylesheet_link_tag “application”, :media => “all”
= stylesheet_link_tag “style”, :media => “all”
Removing stylesheet_link_tag “style”, :media => “all” has solved the
problem.
So in your case probably you have to remove something like:
stylesheet_link_tag “fonts”

I just took a look at my application.html.erb file and saw that I had
the
following:
<%= stylesheet_link_tag “application”, media: “all” %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag “fonts/stylesheet.css” %>
<%= javascript_include_tag “application” %>
I will remove that second line and see if things compile properly.

So removing that link gave me a different error
An ActionView::Template::Error occurred in …
search-image.png isn’t precompiled
actionpack (3.2.13) lib/sprockets/helpers/rails_helper.rb:142:in
`digest_for’
So I think I am probably over the hurdle for now. Hopefully I can figure
out this particular issue and be on my way 
Thanks for the advice and understanding guys!

Thanks for the response Frederick.
I did see in my application.rb that I could add
config.assets.paths << “#{Rails.root}/app/assets/stylesheets/fonts”
config.assets.precompile += [“fonts/stylesheets.css”]
but both gave me the same error as in my first post. Am I specifying
this
incorrectly somehow?
How would I do the alternative linking to application.css if all else
fails?
