generate_manifest_path() click to toggle source

Public: Generate a new random manifest path.

Manifests are not intended to be accessed publicly, but typically live alongside public assets for convenience. To avoid being served, the filename is prefixed with a “.” which is usually hidden by web servers like Apache. To help in other environments that may not control this, a random hex string is appended to the filename to prevent people from guessing the location. If directory indexes are enabled on the server, all bets are off.

Return String path.

def generate_manifest_path
  ".sprockets-manifest-#{SecureRandom.hex(16)}.json"
