So I have a file not found problem. I have an engine that works in development mode in the engines test/dummy app, the engine allows the editing of sass variables and stores them in a theme table, the variables are used by a sass partial such as _banner.scss containing variables used in the main stylesheet such as $banner_color which is then imported into the main stylesheet which in turn is precompiled using an initializer in the engine.rb file and inclusion in the app/config/engine_name_manifest.js.
The files are all available in development with the local dummy app but not in the eventual host app due to the assets being compiled.
I have a rake task that takes the data, updates the relevant partial e.g. _banner.scss with the data from the theme table but of course the partials are not not available in a host app as the engine has already compiled them. I'm looking for a solution that will allow me to edit the raw, uncompiled stylesheets then recompile them. Obviously my Capistrano deploy script will need to reapply the stylesheet changes every deployment but that is just a rake task call. What approach should I take? Should I find a way to copy the css files to the host app in an engine initializer? Should I use a different approach entirely, I have started looking at propshaft but that is a massive step to replace sass rails and I'm not sure how that would help
