Camping list - Dec 2012 - New to camping-list, and a problem mounting files to a server

Hi to everybody,

My name is Alex and I''m new to the Camping mailing list, as well as
Camping
itself. I have to say, I think this is an awesome project and it is exactly
what I''m looking for right now. Something fun to experiment with.

Getting a server up and running was very easy, but of course I''ve hit a
road block: Any file that I''m referring to in the layout does not mount
on
the server. For example,

I have a very simple app to illustrate this, which has one controller that
simply renders a function named pageFunc:

  def pageFunc
    img :src => ''labelnegate.jpg''
  end

labelnegate.jpg is in the same directory as the app, but the image does not
show. The terminal that I launched the camping server in shows:

  127.0.0.1 - - [18/Dec/2012 16:19:19] "GET /labelnegate.jpg HTTP/1.1"
404
60 0.0146

which is obviously showing a 404 error.

Strange indeed. Now I''m not looking for a flat out answer to this
problem
per se, I''d actually prefer someone to just give me a nudge in the
right
direction. I''ve been browsing the camping-unabridged.rb source, but I
can''t
seem to find where or how local files are mounted to the server. Or is that
actually Rack''s responsibility?

Also, I didn''t include the full source of the app because I
don''t know if
you guys have code formatting guidelines, so I thought one small function
would be acceptable in this case. If you could tell me what (if any)
formatting guidelines you have, I will surely respect those in the future.

I appreciate any replies.

Thanks a lot,
-Alex

They aren''t as far as I know. I usually use something like this to
mount an entire directory:


   Camping.goes :App
   module App
     use Rack::Static, :urls => [''/static'']
   end

This will make e.g. static/foo.png available at /static/foo.png on your server.

That''s perfect! Thanks a lot for the quick reply. It worked for me.
