Can we still use the asset pipeline?

[lukebooth]

I want to use ember.js with rails and rails-api looks promising for this. All my views will be rendered with ember and aren't needed in rails. I threw your gem in my app and the asset pipeline isn't being compiled anymore; it is still enabled in my application.rb though.

Is there a way to still use the asset pipeline with this gem?

You can 'use the asset pipeline,' like you said, it's not removed. Just mkdir /app/assets/{javascripts,stylesheets,images} and you're good to go.

That said, upon the next release, we will be generating those directories, because, as you say, ember will obviously want to use it. Check out 1364ad1. We're also considering replacing sprockets with something like rake-pipeline.
