Hello Folks, is there a way to have rails look for files from 2 different root directories ?
Heres the scenario...
- we deploy our apps to lots of customers - they each have a few customizations (views, configs, css, etc) - I would like my rails to look for files like this
- first search RAILS_ROOT/overlay/customer1 - then search RAILS_ROOT like normal
so if nothing was in the overlay directory, all the files would come form RAILS_ROOT like normal - but if RAILS_ROOT/overlay/customer1/app/welcome/_message.rhml existed, it would use that
Or am I in left field here ?
This seems easy to do assuming rails finds files from one centralized place, then you could just add this functionality there.
