When generating SASS files csspath should use image-url instead of url about sprite-factory HOT 3 CLOSED

I don't think there is an image-url function built into SASS directly, so I'm guessing you are talking about the helpers added by sass-rails ?

As you rightly point out, the current version of sprite factory only allows customization of the text inside the css url() method. So instead of using the sass-rails image_url method, you would have to use the slightly lower level image_path, e.g.

:csspath => "image_path('$IMAGE')"

or

:csspath => lambda{ |i| "image_path('#{i}')" }

Which should work (in theory - haven't actually tried it myself)

Extending the sprite-factory to allow customization of the entire string (including the url() part) would be tricky to do without breaking backward compatibility. I should probably follow the same pattern as sass-rails and leave :csspath as the way to override just the path, and introduce a new, but similar :cssurl as a way to override the entire string....

.... I'll give that a little more thought and see what I can come up with. I'm reluctant to have 2 ways to do practically the same thing, but perhaps I'd just deprecate (and eventually remove) the :csspath mechanism.

I decided to break backward compatibility (a tiny bit) and replaced the :csspath option with a new :cssurl option that allows you to control the entire value, including the outer url(...).

So, with the 1.5.2 branch you should now be able to specify:

:cssurl => "image-url('$IMAGE')"

See "Customizing the CSS Image Path" in the README for more details.

Hope that helps.
