My goal is to automatically create several folders including all necessary files to display a webpage on its own, based on a loop of folder names (simplified example).
HTML and CSS get rendered fine with the approach listed at the bottom (with layouts + templates and css imports combined together).
However somehow the JS does not get compiled properly with this proxy approach - basically it doesn’t include the other JS files referenced within the all.js file (//= require "_somelibrary").
JS compilation works fine without proxying, but I’m ignoring the non-proxied files on purpose. It also works fine if I use the inline JS plugin, but I want the JS file to be separated.
Is there any trick to make it compile the JS files using proxy?
Loop in config.rb:
["foo", "bar"].each do |folder_name|
proxy "/#{folder_name}/index.html", "/index.html"
proxy "/#{folder_name}/stylesheets/styles.css", "/stylesheets.css"
proxy "/#{folder_name}/javascripts/all.js", "/javascripts/all.js"
end
ignore "index.html"
ignore "javascripts/all.js"
ignore "stylesheets/styles.css"
Folder Structure (with intended build structure):
====
- source
- javascripts
- _somelibrary.js
- all.js
- stylesheets
- _somecss.scss
- all.scss
- layouts
- layout.html.haml
- index.html.haml
- build
- bar
- javascripts
- all.js
- stylesheets
- styles.css
- index.html
- foo
- javascripts
- all.js
- stylesheets
- styles.css
- index.html
- config.rb
