Rails 4 assets.precompile

Question

This is a common question in here, but none of the solutions fixed my problem, so here it goes:

I am adding ace.js to my rails4 app, So what I did was

- Added vendor/assets/ace/ace.js
- Created vendor/assets/ace/index.js , with content
  //= require ace  
- Added the following to my production.rb
  config.assets.precompile += %w( index.js )  
  config.assets.paths << Rails.root.join("vendor", "assets", "ace")

So in my layout file I have:

<%= javascript_include_tag "ace" %>

and it works just fine on dev, but when I run:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

It doest not create the digest version of the ace file.

Am I missing something?

Answer 1

It is solved by adding :

config.assets.precompile += %w( index.js )

to config/application.rb. (not config/environments/production.rb)

Tested in Rails 4.0 beta1.
