Why doesn't a Rails 3.2.2 new application include lib/assets in the asset paths?
ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-3
Solution
I don't have Rails installed on this computer, but from the source reference it looks like `lib/assets` would never be included, but any subpaths would.
Try creating `lib/assets/javascripts` and see if that's included automatically.
Problem
I recently wrote a blog post on the asset pipeline and learned that the folder `lib/assets` should be included in the asset paths list. If I create a brand new Rails app using 3.2.2, run the console and then run the command `y Rails.application.config.assets.paths` I don't see lib/assets. Shouldn't this be included by default? Here's how I got there: ``` $ rails new example $ cd example $ rails c >> y Rails.application.config.assets.paths --- - /Users/eberry/Playground/example/app/assets/images - /Users/eberry/Playground/example/app/assets/javascripts - /Users/eberry/Playground/example/app/assets/stylesheets - /Users/eberry/Playground/example/vendor/assets/javascripts - /Users/eberry/Playground/example/vendor/assets/stylesheets - /Users/eberry/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/jquery-rails-2.0.2/vendor/assets/javascripts - /Users/eberry/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p290/gems/coffee-rails-3.2.2/lib/assets/javascripts => nil >> ``` Any help would be greatly appreciated.
