rails_admin js/css no longer precompile in 0.0.4

[rystraum]

Just started a new rails project with 0.0.4 and production fails because it can't find pre-compiled rails_admin.js/css.
I downgraded my rails_admin to 0.0.3 and ran

rake assets:clean && RAILS_ENV=production rake assets:precompile 

and it precompiled rails_admin js/css.
Images are found and are precompiled in both cases, so it's just the CSS and JS that aren't precompiled.

Same issue here

Maybe related to 152dc34

Same here with 0.0.4

ActionView::Template::Error (rails_admin/rails_admin.css isn't precompiled):
    4:     %meta{:content => "text/html; charset=utf-8", "http-equiv" => "Content-Type"}
    5:     %meta{:content => "NONE,NOARCHIVE", :name => "robots"}
    6:     = csrf_meta_tag
    7:     = stylesheet_link_tag "rails_admin/rails_admin.css", :media => :all
    8:     = javascript_include_tag "rails_admin/rails_admin.js"

#1046 This works for me.

[bbenezech]

What exactly worked for you, @qqshfox ?

I get Undefined variable: "$red". in rails_admin/base/theming.css.scss:19 when I run rake assets:precompile

Here's my rake stack trace and application.rb file.

@qqshfox 's solution worked great. Thanks!

Edited the documentation for troubleshooting: https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin/wiki/Troubleshoot/_compare/4628de8a65028be16d2e6d9834ec28a55eca4e0c...863f5656f25ebac5652f903f18240f251d0b6fff

Although, if this problem is universal (that is everyone would absolutely, without a doubt, run into this problem), I think having it buried in the Troubleshoot wiki page is not the best way to go about this.

Probably having it up as a note when people run

rails generate rails_admin:install

instead, much like how Devise does their own post-install notes?
If people think the troubleshooting documentation is enough, I will close this issue.

Added that, @rystraum, but didn't help:

I've made slight modification to changes made by #1135.
I think this should fix the issue both on config.assets.initialize_on_precompile = false and true environment, but I've tested only locally.
Is there anyone who can see if it works on production envs(especially on Heroku) as expected?

@parkr
Yours is not related to this issue.
You'd better check discussions in #682 and #988.

[chewi]

What I don't understand is whether this change was intentional. Are we supposed to add these to config.assets.precompile now? That doesn't seem right to me.

[rystraum]

@chewi: That's why I suggested having it up as a note when you first run rails g rails_admin:install, if it was indeed intentional. In general, I don't mind, as long as it's documented anywhere.

[mshibuya]

@chewi @rystraum
This is a regression, not an intentional issue.
And should be resolved by my recent commit, so can you guys see if the latest master precompiles RailsAdmin assets without adding config.assets.precompile += ... configuration?

[morgoth]

@mshibuya it's working. This issue can be closed

[ktaragorn]

I am using 0.1.x version and I still need to follow those steps of remove the catch all, and add the +=

[heaven]

I was using:

Rails.application.config.assets.precompile << /(^[^_\/]|\/[^_])[^\/]*$/

How should I handle this now? Do I need to specify all files manually? that doesn't seem right to me.

UPD. Fixed this way:

Rails.application.config.assets.precompile << /(?:^(?!rails_admin)(?:[^_\/]|\/[^_])+)[^\/]*$/
Rails.application.config.assets.precompile += %w[rails_admin/rails_admin.css rails_admin/rails_admin.js]
