- #
- # === Using asset hosts
- #
- # By default, Rails links to these assets on the current host in the public
- # folder, but you can direct Rails to link to assets from a dedicated asset
- # server by setting ActionController::Base.asset_host in the application
- # configuration, typically in config/environments/production.rb.
- # For example, you'd define assets.example.com to be your asset
- # host this way, inside the configure block of your environment-specific
- # configuration files or config/application.rb:
- #
- # config.action_controller.asset_host = "assets.example.com"
- #
- # Helpers take that into account:
- #
- # image_tag("rails.png")
- # # =>
- # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
- # # =>
- #
- # Browsers typically open at most two simultaneous connections to a single
- # host, which means your assets often have to wait for other assets to finish
- # downloading. You can alleviate this by using a %d wildcard in the
- # +asset_host+. For example, "assets%d.example.com". If that wildcard is
- # present Rails distributes asset requests among the corresponding four hosts
- # "assets0.example.com", ..., "assets3.example.com". With this trick browsers
- # will open eight simultaneous connections rather than two.
- #
- # image_tag("rails.png")
- # # =>
- # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
- # # =>
- #
- # To do this, you can either setup four actual hosts, or you can use wildcard
- # DNS to CNAME the wildcard to a single asset host. You can read more about
- # setting up your DNS CNAME records from your ISP.
- #
- # Note: This is purely a browser performance optimization and is not meant
- # for server load balancing. See http://www.die.net/musings/page_load_time/
- # for background.
- #
- # Alternatively, you can exert more control over the asset host by setting
- # +asset_host+ to a proc like this:
- #
- # ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
- # "http://assets#{Digest::MD5.hexdigest(source).to_i(16) % 2 + 1}.example.com"
- # }
- # image_tag("rails.png")
- # # =>
- # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
- # # =>
- #
- # The example above generates "http://assets1.example.com" and
- # "http://assets2.example.com". This option is useful for example if
- # you need fewer/more than four hosts, custom host names, etc.
- #
- # As you see the proc takes a +source+ parameter. That's a string with the
- # absolute path of the asset, for example "/assets/rails.png".
- #
- # ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
- # if source.ends_with?('.css')
- # "http://stylesheets.example.com"
- # else
- # "http://assets.example.com"
- # end
- # }
- # image_tag("rails.png")
- # # =>
- # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
- # # =>
- #
- # Alternatively you may ask for a second parameter +request+. That one is
- # particularly useful for serving assets from an SSL-protected page. The
- # example proc below disables asset hosting for HTTPS connections, while
- # still sending assets for plain HTTP requests from asset hosts. If you don't
- # have SSL certificates for each of the asset hosts this technique allows you
- # to avoid warnings in the client about mixed media.
- #
- # config.action_controller.asset_host = Proc.new { |source, request|
- # if request.ssl?
- # "#{request.protocol}#{request.host_with_port}"
- # else
- # "#{request.protocol}assets.example.com"
- # end
- # }
- #
- # You can also implement a custom asset host object that responds to +call+
- # and takes either one or two parameters just like the proc.
- #
- # config.action_controller.asset_host = AssetHostingWithMinimumSsl.new(
- # "http://asset%d.example.com", "https://asset1.example.com"
- # )
- #
- # === Customizing the asset path
- #
- # By default, Rails appends asset's timestamps to all asset paths. This allows
- # you to set a cache-expiration date for the asset far into the future, but
- # still be able to instantly invalidate it by simply updating the file (and
- # hence updating the timestamp, which then updates the URL as the timestamp
- # is part of that, which in turn busts the cache).
- #
- # It's the responsibility of the web server you use to set the far-future
- # expiration date on cache assets that you need to take advantage of this
- # feature. Here's an example for Apache:
- #
- # # Asset Expiration
- # ExpiresActive On
- #
- # ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
- #
- #
- # Also note that in order for this to work, all your application servers must
- # return the same timestamps. This means that they must have their clocks
- # synchronized. If one of them drifts out of sync, you'll see different
- # timestamps at random and the cache won't work. In that case the browser
- # will request the same assets over and over again even thought they didn't
- # change. You can use something like Live HTTP Headers for Firefox to verify
- # that the cache is indeed working.
- #
- # This strategy works well enough for most server setups and requires the
- # least configuration, but if you deploy several application servers at
- # different times - say to handle a temporary spike in load - then the
- # asset time stamps will be out of sync. In a setup like this you may want
- # to set the way that asset paths are generated yourself.
- #
- # Altering the asset paths that Rails generates can be done in two ways.
- # The easiest is to define the RAILS_ASSET_ID environment variable. The
- # contents of this variable will always be used in preference to
- # calculated timestamps. A more complex but flexible way is to set
- # ActionController::Base.config.asset_path to a proc
- # that takes the unmodified asset path and returns the path needed for
- # your asset caching to work. Typically you'd do something like this in
- # config/environments/production.rb:
- #
- # # Normally you'd calculate RELEASE_NUMBER at startup.
- # RELEASE_NUMBER = 12345
- # config.action_controller.asset_path = proc { |asset_path|
- # "/release-#{RELEASE_NUMBER}#{asset_path}"
- # }
- #
- # This example would cause the following behavior on all servers no
- # matter when they were deployed:
- #
- # image_tag("rails.png")
- # # =>
- # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
- # # =>
- #
- # Changing the asset_path does require that your web servers have
- # knowledge of the asset template paths that you rewrite to so it's not
- # suitable for out-of-the-box use. To use the example given above you
- # could use something like this in your Apache VirtualHost configuration:
- #
- #
- # # Some browsers still send conditional-GET requests if there's a
- # # Last-Modified header or an ETag header even if they haven't
- # # reached the expiry date sent in the Expires header.
- # Header unset Last-Modified
- # Header unset ETag
- # FileETag None
- #
- # # Assets requested using a cache-busting filename should be served
- # # only once and then cached for a really long time. The HTTP/1.1
- # # spec frowns on hugely-long expiration times though and suggests
- # # that assets which never expire be served with an expiration date
- # # 1 year from access.
- # ExpiresActive On
- # ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
- #
- #
- # # We use cached-busting location names with the far-future expires
- # # headers to ensure that if a file does change it can force a new
- # # request. The actual asset filenames are still the same though so we
- # # need to rewrite the location from the cache-busting location to the
- # # real asset location so that we can serve it.
- # RewriteEngine On
- # RewriteRule ^/release-\d+/(images|javascripts|stylesheets)/(.*)$ /$1/$2 [L]

+ # Alternatively, you can exert more control over the asset host by setting
+ # +asset_host+ to a proc like this:
+ #
+ # ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
+ # "http://assets#{Digest::MD5.hexdigest(source).to_i(16) % 2 + 1}.example.com"
+ # }
+ # image_tag("rails.png")
+ # # =>
+ # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+ # # =>
+ #
+ # The example above generates "http://assets1.example.com" and
+ # "http://assets2.example.com". This option is useful for example if
+ # you need fewer/more than four hosts, custom host names, etc.
+ #
+ # As you see the proc takes a +source+ parameter. That's a string with the
+ # absolute path of the asset, for example "/assets/rails.png".
+ #
+ # ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
+ # if source.ends_with?('.css')
+ # "http://stylesheets.example.com"
+ # else
+ # "http://assets.example.com"
+ # end
+ # }
+ # image_tag("rails.png")
+ # # =>
+ # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+ # # =>
+ #
+ # Alternatively you may ask for a second parameter +request+. That one is
+ # particularly useful for serving assets from an SSL-protected page. The
+ # example proc below disables asset hosting for HTTPS connections, while
+ # still sending assets for plain HTTP requests from asset hosts. If you don't
+ # have SSL certificates for each of the asset hosts this technique allows you
+ # to avoid warnings in the client about mixed media.
+ #
+ # config.action_controller.asset_host = Proc.new { |source, request|
+ # if request.ssl?
+ # "#{request.protocol}#{request.host_with_port}"
+ # else
+ # "#{request.protocol}assets.example.com"
+ # end
+ # }
+ #
+ # You can also implement a custom asset host object that responds to +call+
+ # and takes either one or two parameters just like the proc.
+ #
+ # config.action_controller.asset_host = AssetHostingWithMinimumSsl.new(
+ # "http://asset%d.example.com", "https://asset1.example.com"
+ # )
+ #
+ # === Customizing the asset path
+ #
+ # By default, Rails appends asset's timestamps to all asset paths. This allows
+ # you to set a cache-expiration date for the asset far into the future, but
+ # still be able to instantly invalidate it by simply updating the file (and
+ # hence updating the timestamp, which then updates the URL as the timestamp
+ # is part of that, which in turn busts the cache).
+ #
+ # It's the responsibility of the web server you use to set the far-future
+ # expiration date on cache assets that you need to take advantage of this
+ # feature. Here's an example for Apache:
+ #
+ # # Asset Expiration
+ # ExpiresActive On
+ #
+ # ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
+ #
+ #
+ # Also note that in order for this to work, all your application servers must
+ # return the same timestamps. This means that they must have their clocks
+ # synchronized. If one of them drifts out of sync, you'll see different
+ # timestamps at random and the cache won't work. In that case the browser
+ # will request the same assets over and over again even thought they didn't
+ # change. You can use something like Live HTTP Headers for Firefox to verify
+ # that the cache is indeed working.
+ #
+ # This strategy works well enough for most server setups and requires the
+ # least configuration, but if you deploy several application servers at
+ # different times - say to handle a temporary spike in load - then the
+ # asset time stamps will be out of sync. In a setup like this you may want
+ # to set the way that asset paths are generated yourself.
+ #
+ # Altering the asset paths that Rails generates can be done in two ways.
+ # The easiest is to define the RAILS_ASSET_ID environment variable. The
+ # contents of this variable will always be used in preference to
+ # calculated timestamps. A more complex but flexible way is to set
+ # ActionController::Base.config.asset_path to a proc
+ # that takes the unmodified asset path and returns the path needed for
+ # your asset caching to work. Typically you'd do something like this in
+ # config/environments/production.rb:
+ #
+ # # Normally you'd calculate RELEASE_NUMBER at startup.
+ # RELEASE_NUMBER = 12345
+ # config.action_controller.asset_path = proc { |asset_path|
+ # "/release-#{RELEASE_NUMBER}#{asset_path}"
+ # }
+ #
+ # This example would cause the following behavior on all servers no
+ # matter when they were deployed:
+ #
+ # image_tag("rails.png")
+ # # =>
+ # stylesheet_link_tag("application")
+ # # =>
+ #
+ # Changing the asset_path does require that your web servers have
+ # knowledge of the asset template paths that you rewrite to so it's not
+ # suitable for out-of-the-box use. To use the example given above you
+ # could use something like this in your Apache VirtualHost configuration:
+ #
+ #
+ # # Some browsers still send conditional-GET requests if there's a
+ # # Last-Modified header or an ETag header even if they haven't
+ # # reached the expiry date sent in the Expires header.
+ # Header unset Last-Modified
+ # Header unset ETag
+ # FileETag None
+ #
+ # # Assets requested using a cache-busting filename should be served
+ # # only once and then cached for a really long time. The HTTP/1.1
+ # # spec frowns on hugely-long expiration times though and suggests
+ # # that assets which never expire be served with an expiration date
+ # # 1 year from access.
+ # ExpiresActive On
+ # ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 year"
+ #
+ #
+ # # We use cached-busting location names with the far-future expires
+ # # headers to ensure that if a file does change it can force a new
+ # # request. The actual asset filenames are still the same though so we
+ # # need to rewrite the location from the cache-busting location to the
+ # # real asset location so that we can serve it.
+ # RewriteEngine On
+ # RewriteRule ^/release-\d+/(images|javascripts|stylesheets)/(.*)$ /$1/$2 [L]
