Instance Method Details

#asset_pack_path(name, **options) ⇒ Object

Computes the relative path for a given Webpacker asset. Returns the relative path using manifest.json and passes it to asset_path helper. This will use asset_path internally, so most of their behaviors will be the same.

Example:

# When extract_css is false in webpacker.yml and the file is a css:
<%= asset_pack_path 'calendar.css' %>  # => nil

# When extract_css is true in webpacker.yml or the file is not a css:
<%= asset_pack_path 'calendar.css' %> # => "/packs/calendar-1016838bab065ae1e122.css"

  if current_webpacker_instance.config.extract_css? || !stylesheet?(name)
    asset_path(current_webpacker_instance.manifest.lookup!(name), options)
  end
end

#asset_pack_url(name, **options) ⇒ Object

Computes the absolute path for a given Webpacker asset. Returns the absolute path using manifest.json and passes it to asset_url helper. This will use asset_url internally, so most of their behaviors will be the same.

Example:

# When extract_css is false in webpacker.yml and the file is a css:
<%= asset_pack_url 'calendar.css' %> # => nil

# When extract_css is true in webpacker.yml or the file is not a css:
<%= asset_pack_url 'calendar.css' %> # => "http://example.com/packs/calendar-1016838bab065ae1e122.css"

#current_webpacker_instance ⇒ Object

Returns the current Webpacker instance. Could be overridden to use multiple Webpacker configurations within the same app (e.g. with engines).

#favicon_pack_tag(name, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates a link tag for a favicon that references the named pack file.

Example:

<%= favicon_pack_tag 'mb-icon.png', rel: 'apple-touch-icon', type: 'image/png' %>
<link href="/packs/mb-icon-k344a6d59eef8632c9d1.png" rel="apple-touch-icon" type="image/png" />

end

#image_pack_tag(name, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates an image tag that references the named pack file.

Example:

<%= image_pack_tag 'application.png', size: '16x10', alt: 'Edit Entry' %>
<img alt='Edit Entry' src='/packs/application-k344a6d59eef8632c9d1.png' width='16' height='10' />

end

#javascript_pack_tag(*names, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates a script tag that references the named pack file, as compiled by webpack per the entries list in config/webpack/shared.js. By default, this list is auto-generated to match everything in app/javascript/packs/*.js. In production mode, the digested reference is automatically looked up.

Example:

<%= javascript_pack_tag 'calendar', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %> # =>
<script src="/packs/calendar-1016838bab065ae1e314.js" data-turbolinks-track="reload"></script>

end

#javascript_packs_with_chunks_tag(*names, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates script tags that reference the js chunks from entrypoints when using split chunks API, as compiled by webpack per the entries list in config/webpack/shared.js. By default, this list is auto-generated to match everything in app/javascript/packs/*.js and all the dependent chunks. In production mode, the digested reference is automatically looked up. See: webpack.js.org/plugins/split-chunks-plugin/ Example:

<%= javascript_packs_with_chunks_tag 'calendar', 'map', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %> # =>
<script src="/packs/vendor-16838bab065ae1e314.chunk.js" data-turbolinks-track="reload"></script>
<script src="/packs/calendar~runtime-16838bab065ae1e314.chunk.js" data-turbolinks-track="reload"></script>
<script src="/packs/calendar-1016838bab065ae1e314.chunk.js" data-turbolinks-track="reload"></script>
<script src="/packs/map~runtime-16838bab065ae1e314.chunk.js" data-turbolinks-track="reload"></script>
<script src="/packs/map-16838bab065ae1e314.chunk.js" data-turbolinks-track="reload"></script>

#preload_pack_asset(name, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates a link tag, for preloading, that references a given Webpacker asset. In production mode, the digested reference is automatically looked up. See: developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Preloading_content Example:

<%= preload_pack_asset 'fonts/fa-regular-400.woff2' %> # =>
<link rel="preload" href="/packs/fonts/fa-regular-400-944fb546bd7018b07190a32244f67dc9.woff2" as="font" type="font/woff2" crossorigin="anonymous">

  end
end

#stylesheet_pack_tag(*names, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates a link tag that references the named pack file, as compiled by webpack per the entries list in config/webpack/shared.js. By default, this list is auto-generated to match everything in app/javascript/packs/*.js. In production mode, the digested reference is automatically looked up.

Note: If the development server is running and hot module replacement is active, this will return nothing. In that setup you need to configure your styles to be inlined in your JavaScript for hot reloading.

Examples:

# When extract_css is false in webpacker.yml:
<%= stylesheet_pack_tag 'calendar', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %> # =>
nil

# When extract_css is true in webpacker.yml:
<%= stylesheet_pack_tag 'calendar', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %> # =>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="/packs/calendar-1016838bab065ae1e122.css" data-turbolinks-track="reload" />

#stylesheet_packs_with_chunks_tag(*names, **options) ⇒ Object

Creates link tags that reference the css chunks from entrypoints when using split chunks API, as compiled by webpack per the entries list in config/webpack/shared.js. By default, this list is auto-generated to match everything in app/javascript/packs/*.js and all the dependent chunks. In production mode, the digested reference is automatically looked up.
