asset-url returning local filepath in development

[benoit]

I'm trying to add a font-face and I'm running into some unexpected behaviors :

@font-face
  font-family: 'myFont'
  src: asset-url('myFont.woff') format('woff')

and the generated CSS looks like this :

@font-face {
  font-family: "myFont";
  src: url(file:////Users/myself/../public/assets/myFont-84a15d02bbd5aa4b34978f91deba0b0e6657c5e6a3bc122d6f50788568b76e46.woff) format("woff");
}

I expected the url to be /assets/assets/myFont-84a15d02bbd5aa4b34978f91deba0b0e6657c5e6a3bc122d6f50788568b76e46.woff

Calling asset-path('myFont.woff') alone returns /assets/assets/myFont-84a15d02bbd5aa4b34978f91deba0b0e6657c5e6a3bc122d6f50788568b76e46.woff
Calling url(asset-path('myFont.woff')) returns the local file path

A temporary workaround I'm using is to configure the asset_host :

config.action_controller.asset_host = "http://localhost:3000/"

so that it resolves to the correct url in the end, but I'd rather not.

Do you have any idea what's happening?

Closing this as this appear to not be related to sass-rails
