Asset Pipeline: Asset attempted to compress while creating page response & not during asset request
Hi,
I am stuck in a weird situation where in my production environment, an
asset is being attempted to compress while rendering a view.
I''ve all my assets put into public/assets folder via rake
"assets:precompile"
production.rb has following configurations:
--------------------------------------------------------------
# Disable live compilation of assets(Don''t fallback to assets pipeline
if
a precompiled asset is missed)
config.assets.compile = false
# Assets pre-compilation task(rake assets:precompile) configurations
config.assets.css_compressor = :yui
config.assets.js_compressor = :yui
config.assets.compress = true
When I request for some page let say http://www.example.com/home, while
generating the page response, Rails is trying to compress an asset named
"jquery.bxslider.min"
I''ve following code that is creating error.
<%= content_for :js_include do %>
<%= javascript_include_tag ''jquery.bxslider.min'' %>
<% end %>
Error in log:
============ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `exitstatus''
for nil:NilClass
(in /example/lib/assets/javascripts/jquery.bxslider.min.js)):
57: <%= content_for :js_include do %>
58: <%= javascript_include_tag ''jquery.bxslider.min''
%>
59: <% end %>
The error is however for missing java(as I''m using YUI for compression,
which depends on java)
I don''t want any live compression & compilation, as assets are
already available in public/assets folder
I am surprised, why Rails is trying to compress asset while rendering an action.
Please advise.
Regards
Farukh D M

You have to be careful with javascript_include_tag when you are using the asset pipeline. When you precompile your assets, everything is put into one js file with a long, cryptic name that looks something like the following in html: <script src="/assets/application-931a21730f0f60d50be598cdd891dccf.js"></script> When you then insert a javascript tag, it''s going to look like the following in your html: <script src="jquery.bxslider.min.js"></script> The browser is going to attempt to load both files.

Because this file is located in the /app/assets/js directory, it''s going to be processed by rails through the asset compiler when the browser requests the file. You shouldn''t reference a javascript file in a script tag if you''ve already included it in the asset pipeline unless you truly intend to load it twice. If you have javascript you want to load independent of the asset pipeline and you don''t want it processed through the asset compiler, you should reference it in a javascript_include_tag as you have done above, but you should locate the file in the public/js directory. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Re: Asset Pipeline: Asset attempted to compress while creating page response & not during asset request
Thanks for the update. jquery.bxslider.min.js in my case is not part of application.js I have added jquery.bxslider.min.js to pre-compile path also, so that it can be loaded independently. Its available in public/assets folder too. You said "I''m not surprised it is re-compiling the source code at runtime."..I totally agree. However that should happen when browser request that very particular asset, not while creating page response that has <script src="jquery.bxslider.min.js"></script> in the markup. Am I going astray here in making you understand the issue. Let me know.

The settings in your production.rb are typical production settings. However, in this case, the first setting, config.assets.compile = false has implications. When this is set to false, the system assumes all assets have been pre-compiled. When you pre-compile, a manifest is generated that maps the "normal" file names to the cryptic filename it''s now compressed into. When html code is generated from a view, it references the manifest, and substitutes the cryptic filename. This is the point where I''m unsure of what happens. In your case, there''s a file referenced in the assets directory that isn''t in the manifest and isn''t pre-compiled. I''m not sure what the system does because when this flag is set to false, it doesn''t even load the pipeline gems so it doesn''t have access to the compiler. I''m guessing it throws an error, but that''s a guess, which would be the error you encountered. I''d have to test this but my guess is that you either need to pre-compile the asset, or locate it in the public directory (only) and write the tag to access the file in the public directory. I''m not sure this is correct, but hopefully it will point you in the right direction. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Re: Asset Pipeline: Asset attempted to compress while creating page response & not during asset request
Hi, FYI... With config.assets.compile = false(live compilation disabled) I removed entry from manifest.yml file and I got: ActionView::Template::Error (jquery.bxslider.min.js isn''t precompiled) which I guess it valid error message. Had there been, config.assets.compile = true + missing mappin in manifest and no java to support YUI gem to compress. Not sure what would happen.
