padrino-asset-pipeline

An asset pipeline implementation for Padrino based on Sprockets, working for Padrino multi-apps, with support for CoffeeScript, SASS, SCSS, LESS, ERB as well as CSS (SASS, YUI) and JavaScript (uglifier, YUI, Closure) minification.

padrino-asset-pipeline is a fork of sinatra-asset-pipeline and supports both compiling assets on the fly for development as well as precompiling assets for production.

Installation

Include padrino-asset-pipeline in your project's Gemfile:

gem 'padrino-asset-pipeline'

Make sure to add the padrino-asset-pipeline Rake task in your applications Rakefile:

require 'sinatra/asset_pipeline/task'

Sinatra::AssetPipeline::Task.define!(SampleBlog::App)
Sinatra::AssetPipeline::Task.define!(SampleBlog::Admin)

Now, when everything is in place you can precompile assets located in assets/<asset-type> with:

$ RACK_ENV=production rake assets:precompile

And remove old compiled assets with:

$ RACK_ENV=production rake assets:clean

Sample Gemfile

source 'https://rubygems.org'
source 'https://rails-assets.org'

gem 'rake'

gem 'padrino', '0.12.4'
gem 'padrino-asset-pipeline', :require => 'sinatra/asset_pipeline', :git => 'https://github.com/proudsugar/padrino-asset-pipeline.git'

gem 'compass'

# Bower components
# Add https://rails-assets.org as the new gem source, then reference any Bower components that you need as gems in the following convention:
# gem 'rails-assets-BOWER_PACKAGE_NAME'
gem 'rails-assets-bootstrap-sass-official', '~> 3.3' # contains jquery dependency

group :production do
  gem 'uglifier'
end

Example of Padrino Sub-Apps

In its most simple form, you just register the Sinatra::AssetPipeline Padrino extension within your applications:

module SampleBlog
  class App < Padrino::Application
    # [...]
    configure do
      # If your application doesn't follow the defaults you can customize it as follows:
      # Include these files when precompiling assets
      set :assets_precompile, %w(application.js application.css jquery.js *.png *.jpg *.svg *.eot *.ttf *.woff)
      # Logical paths to your assets
      set :assets_prefix, %w(app/assets)
      # CSS minification
      set :assets_css_compressor, :sass
      # JavaScript minification
      set :assets_js_compressor, :uglifier
      register Sinatra::AssetPipeline
      # Register the AssetPipeline extention, make sure this goes after all customization
      if defined?(RailsAssets)
        # Actual Rails Assets integration, everything else is Sprockets
        RailsAssets.load_paths.each do |path|
          settings.sprockets.append_path(path)
        end
      end
    end

    get '/' do
      haml :index
    end
  end
end

module SampleBlog
  class Admin < Padrino::Application
    # [...]
    configure do
      # If your application doesn't follow the defaults you can customize it as follows:
      # Include these files when precompiling assets
      set :assets_precompile, %w(application.js application.css jquery.js *.png *.jpg *.svg *.eot *.ttf *.woff)
      # Logical paths to your assets
      set :assets_prefix, %w(admin/assets)
      # Public path: affects compilation destination of targets and path prefixes
      set :assets_path, File.join(public_dir, "admin/assets")
      # CSS minification
      set :assets_css_compressor, :sass
      # JavaScript minification
      set :assets_js_compressor, :uglifier
      register Sinatra::AssetPipeline
      # Register the AssetPipeline extention, make sure this goes after all customization
      if defined?(RailsAssets)
        # Actual Rails Assets integration, everything else is Sprockets
        RailsAssets.load_paths.each do |path|
          settings.sprockets.append_path(path)
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

Now when everything is in place you can use all helpers provided by sprockets-helpers, an example:

body {
  background-image: image-url('cat.png');
}

Note that you don't need to require sprockets-helpers inside your code to leverage the functionallity given to you by the integration, padrino-asset-pipeline handles that for you.

CSS and JavaScript minification

If you would like to use CSS and/or JavaScript minification make sure to require the needed gems in your Gemfile:

Minifier	Gem
:sass	sass
:closure	closure-compiler
:uglifier	uglifier
:yui	yui-compressor
