add external style sheet in rails project

问题:

I am using Rails 3.2.1. How do I add external style sheets in my rails application?

I've tried the following answers to no avail:

• How do I link to an external stylesheet in Ruby on Rails? - but the link given in the answer is not working.
• How do I use CSS with a ruby on rails application? - which says to add stylesheet in public/stylesheets, but I do not have folder named public/stylesheets. I do have a public folder, but I have stylesheets folder under /vendor/assets.
• css @import external style sheet - but it's unclear.

I'm just going to assume you're already using something like this in your layout:

stylesheet_link_tag 'application'

If you want to refer to an external stylesheet then all you need to do is pass in the url.

stylesheet_link_tag 'application', 'http://yui.yahooapis.com/2.8.1/build/reset/reset-min.css'

If you want to include the actual files in your codebase:

app/assets/stylesheets is where you should place your main css files.

vendor/assets/stylesheets is where you should place the css files for any plugins that you might have.

It's the same for js files. For example your application.js would go in app/assets/javascripts and a jquery plugin like timeago.js would go in vendor/assets/javascripts.

After looking for a solution to this problem for a while, I found this step by step tutorial which explain how to implement a bootstrap theme to a rails app => http://www.notch8.com/implementing-a-bootstrap-theme/

You can apply this to other CSS and JS templates than a Bootstrap one.

Hope this help (sorry if I make english mistakes)
