Changing output path of sprite image

[Brian Morton]

This tool is absolutely tremendous and it is exactly what I have been
searching for. One small problem I have is that my site is laid out
as follows:

/home/website/public => /
/home/website/public/css => /css
/home/website/public/images => /images

With a build command like this:
sh smartsprites.sh --root-dir-path ~/website/public/

or even like this:

sh smartsprites.sh --root-dir-path ~/website/public/ --output-dir-
path /tmp/ --document-root-dir-path ~/website/public/

My sprites wind up at:

/<output-dir-path>/img/mysprite.png

Is there any way to control the img part of the path/URL? The path
isn't so bad, but the URL in the resulting sprite.css files is a
problem since my images don't reside at /img. I've hunted through the
source code but cannot find anything useful to resolve this problem.

Thanks,

Hi Brian,

The paths in sprite definition directive are relative to the CSS they're declared in, so if you go:

/** sprite: mysprite; sprite-image: url('../images/mysprite.png'); sprite-layout: vertical */

then the images should end up in your images/ dir. With that change, SmartSprites yout invocation can be something like:

./smartsprites.sh --root-dir-path ~/website/public/

Let me know if this did the trick.

Cheers,

Staszek
