module Helpers
# This module provides methods for generating asset paths and
# urls.

# # => "/assets/rails.png"
#
# image_url("rails.png")
# # => "http://www.example.com/assets/rails.png"
#
# === Using asset hosts
#
# By default, Rails links to these assets on the current host in the public
# folder, but you can direct Rails to link to assets from a dedicated asset
# server by setting ActionController::Base.asset_host in the application
# configuration, typically in config/environments/production.rb.
# For example, you'd define assets.example.com to be your asset
# host this way, inside the configure block of your environment-specific
# configuration files or config/application.rb:
#
# config.action_controller.asset_host = "assets.example.com"
#
# Helpers take that into account:
#
# image_tag("rails.png")
# # =>
# stylesheet_link_tag("application")
# # =>
#
# Browsers typically open at most two simultaneous connections to a single
# host, which means your assets often have to wait for other assets to finish
# downloading. You can alleviate this by using a %d wildcard in the
# +asset_host+. For example, "assets%d.example.com". If that wildcard is
# present Rails distributes asset requests among the corresponding four hosts
# "assets0.example.com", ..., "assets3.example.com". With this trick browsers
# will open eight simultaneous connections rather than two.
#
# image_tag("rails.png")
# # =>
# stylesheet_link_tag("application")
# # =>
#
# To do this, you can either setup four actual hosts, or you can use wildcard
# DNS to CNAME the wildcard to a single asset host. You can read more about
# setting up your DNS CNAME records from your ISP.
#
# Note: This is purely a browser performance optimization and is not meant
# for server load balancing. See http://www.die.net/musings/page_load_time/
# for background.
#
# Alternatively, you can exert more control over the asset host by setting
# +asset_host+ to a proc like this:
#
# ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
# "http://assets#{Digest::MD5.hexdigest(source).to_i(16) % 2 + 1}.example.com"
# }
# image_tag("rails.png")
# # =>
# stylesheet_link_tag("application")
# # =>
#
# The example above generates "http://assets1.example.com" and
# "http://assets2.example.com". This option is useful for example if
# you need fewer/more than four hosts, custom host names, etc.
#
# As you see the proc takes a +source+ parameter. That's a string with the
# absolute path of the asset, for example "/assets/rails.png".
#
# ActionController::Base.asset_host = Proc.new { |source|
# if source.ends_with?('.css')
# "http://stylesheets.example.com"
# else
# "http://assets.example.com"
# end
# }
# image_tag("rails.png")
# # =>
# stylesheet_link_tag("application")
# # =>
#
# Alternatively you may ask for a second parameter +request+. That one is
# particularly useful for serving assets from an SSL-protected page. The
# example proc below disables asset hosting for HTTPS connections, while
# still sending assets for plain HTTP requests from asset hosts. If you don't
# have SSL certificates for each of the asset hosts this technique allows you
# to avoid warnings in the client about mixed media.
# Note that the request parameter might not be supplied, e.g. when the assets
# are precompiled via a Rake task. Make sure to use a Proc instead of a lambda,
# since a Proc allows missing parameters and sets them to nil.
#
# config.action_controller.asset_host = Proc.new { |source, request|
# if request && request.ssl?
# "#{request.protocol}#{request.host_with_port}"
# else
# "#{request.protocol}assets.example.com"
# end
# }
#
# You can also implement a custom asset host object that responds to +call+
# and takes either one or two parameters just like the proc.
#
# config.action_controller.asset_host = AssetHostingWithMinimumSsl.new(
# "http://asset%d.example.com", "https://asset1.example.com"
# )
