sprite-path() does not honor the generated_images_dir path.

[jannisg]

I've noticed that when setting the generated_images_dir in the config.rb that the sprite-path() function will still use the images_dir as the basis for the resulting path.

Example:

Inside my config.rb:

images_dir = "/public/assets/images"
generated_images_dir = "/public/assets/images/sprites"

Inside my application.scss:

$my-sprites: sprite-map('my-sprites/*.png);

@debug( sprite-path( $my-sprites ) );

// returns
DEBUG: my-sprites-xxxxxxx.png

Output of the debug() is my-sprites.png when it should've been sprites/my-sprites.png.

Is this a bug or am I missing the point on what the sprite-path should be used for?

Thanks for taking a look.

Hi @scottdavis,

I'm still experiencing this issue in 0.12.2. It looks like the fix is on the allowed_extensions branch, I'm not sure how to utilise it in my version of Compass.

I'm using grunt-contrib-compass with the following image settings:

imagesPath: 'app/images',
generatedImagesDir: '.tmp/images/generated',

If I run

image-height(sprite-path($icons-2x)

I get:

No such file or directory - app/images/icons-2x-s6999b8e513.png

Sorry, just realised this is now in 0.13, I changed my Gemfile like so and it's working:

gem 'sass', "3.3.0.rc.1"
gem 'compass', "0.13.alpha.10"

Thanks,
Damien

when is this planned to the stable version?

[chriseppstein]

@munichlinux I will release 1.0 in the next couple weeks.

No fix for more than 1 year :(

http_path = "/www/"
sass_dir = "/src/sass/"
images_dir = "/src/img/"
generated_images_dir = "/www/img/"
css_dir = "/www/css/"

Workaround, just put this into your config.rb:

# Workaround Compass bug
module Compass::SassExtensions::Functions::Sprites
    def sprite_path(map)
      Sass::Script::String.new(map.filename)
    end
    Sass::Script::Functions.declare :sprite_path, [:map]
end

I'm assuming this is fixed in the latest version, 1.0.0.alpha.19? Unfortunately I get make failed errors when trying to update to the latest pre version.

[AndrewDryga]

Yes, but its alpha, so we need to wait for stable release

@AndrewDryga Your workaround didn't seem to work for me. Was there anything else I needed to add to config.rb for this?

[AndrewDryga]

Here is my config:

            // To enable relative paths to assets via compass helper functions. Uncomment:
            outputStyle: "nested",
            relativeAssets: true,
            // To disable debugging comments that display the original location of your selectors. Uncomment:
            noLineComments: true,
            // We prefer SASS files
            raw: "preferred_syntax = :sass\n",
            // Add hashes to assets
            assetCacheBuster: true,
            // Where do we take sources
            sassDir: "./<%= paths.assets %>/sass/",
            imagesDir: "./<%= paths.assets %>/img/",
            importPath: "./<%= paths.vendor %>/",
            extensionsDir: "./<%= paths.vendor %>/",
            // Where we going to put them
            javascriptsDir: "./<%= paths.build %>/js/",
            cacheDir: "./<%= paths.tmp %>/compass/",
            httpPath: "./<%= paths.build %>/",
            cssDir: "./<%= paths.build %>/css/",
            fontsDir: "./<%= paths.build %>/fonts/",
            generatedImagesDir: "./<%= paths.build %>/img/",

Updated to latest version, Compass 1.0.0.alpha.20, and now my workaround is broken. Can someone assist? I don't know Ruby
