Asset Pipeline: excluding an admin.css file

Question

I upgraded a Rails 3.0 app to Rails 3.1 which involved putting this

/*
*= require_self
*= require_tree .
*/

in the application.css file. Howeve

Answer 1

You can use the stub sprockets' directive in your manifest like this :

/*
*= require_self
*= require_tree .
*= stub admin
*/

This will exclude admin.css and also ALL css required in it !! So, if your admin.css's manifest seems like this :

/*
*= require bootstrap
*= require_self
*/

the bootstrap.css will also be excludes and no require could fixe this ! Take care of this ;)
