rails 4 asset pipeline image subdirectories

asset-pipeline, ruby-on-rails, ruby-on-rails-4

Solution

It's possible if you manually add all paths underneath `app/assets/images` to the Rails asset paths in your `application.rb`:

Dir.glob("#{Rails.root}/app/assets/images/**/").each do |path|
  config.assets.paths << path
end

Problem

I know this is probably an easy question but I am stumped here. The application I am working on houses assets like so: ``` app --assets ----fonts ----images ----javascripts ``` I like to organize assets efficiently to avoid a mess down the road so I am trying to break up images like so: ``` app --assets ----fonts ----images ------icons ------views --------home --------admin ``` Ideally I would like to reference images like `image.png` without having to add the folder path in front of the asset like `views/home/image.png` which I believe has to be possible although not setup like that out of the box.
