Rails - Jan 2009 - Change the default folder for image_tag, javascript_include_

Hi,

I don''t want my default folder to be mysite.com/images/logo.png, but
instead mysite.com/common/images/logo.png

How can I change that? Same  applies to stylesheets and javascripts.


Thanks

Don''t know if there''s an official way, but you could monkey
patch some
of the methods...

Look at actionpack/lib/action_view/helpers/asset_tag_helper.rb... and  
override these methods:

def compute_javascript_paths(*args)
   expand_javascript_sources(*args).collect { |source|  
compute_public_path(source, ''javascripts'',
''js'', false) }
end

def compute_stylesheet_paths(*args)
  expand_stylesheet_sources(*args).collect { |source|  
compute_public_path(source, ''stylesheets'',
''css'', false) }
end

def image_path(source)
   compute_public_path(source, ''images'')
end

Hi Phil,

I know that we can set an assert server, and I think that one day I also 
bumped into changing the default folder (I might be wrong), but I cannot 
find that piece of information again, so I cannot confirm.

I would rather not start monkey patching for such a simple problem, 
otherwise i can simply add the "absolute" path for the assets, but the
line is getting long.
