Re: [nesta] Having trouble getting sass to work with custom templates

Hi Graham,

I had not changed the CSS route, but I followed your instructions and I've
now done this, however, it still isn't automatically picking up the .scss 
file and converting it to .css.

I'm not positive I have the app.rb file in the right place: I placed it 
into the root directory of my project (so along with config.ru).

I'm looking at the error logs and it looks like it's looking for the the 
file in the wrong place:

Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - 
/path-to-project/mysite.com/rake/ruby/1.9.1/gems/nesta-0.9.4/views/profile.sass

And it's also looking for a .sass file even though I changed:

cache sass(params[:profile].to_sym)

to:

cache scss(params[:profile].to_sym)

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Derek

I'm not sure. It's in the right place though. Can you post your app.rb 
file and your layout?

Sure, here they are:

app.rb: http://pastie.org/private/ewi4qrbtmtnfu6gtjyupuq
layout (which I titled profile_layout.haml as I'm using multiple layout 
files): http://pastie.org/private/fvc2gfdhpmkkswuvebsqma

That's the entire app.rb — you're only supposed to be redefining routes. 
I've no idea what impact that'll have.

I wonder if it's picking up the other layout?

Any way I can look at the entire project, with sample content that is 
configured to use this layout?

Ah, I didn't realize that--the instructions on 
http://nestacms.com/docs/design/templating-engines made it sound like I 
needed to copy the contents of app.rb and paste into a new app.rb file for
my project. I suppose this makes more sense though ;) Just changing the 
route for the CSS files and changing the method from "sass" to "scss" 
fixed the problem.

Thanks for your help!

Awesome. :-)
