I'm working with an existing CakePHP (ver. 1.3) application. The main application utilizes CSS and JS compression via the /config/core.php file. My project is to develop proprietary functionality into this application which I'm integrating as a CakePHP plugin. Now there have been very few hitches while developing as a Plugin, but the issue below is one that I haven't been able to locate a solution for.
Since the compression config option is enabled in the main CakePHP core.php file, anytime I try to load CSS or JS within the plugin files to it's internal plugin assets location (/app/plugins/plugin_name/webroot/) it's automatically rewriting the folder to the cached folder "/plugin_name/webroot/ccss" or "/plugin_name/webroot/cjs" as it's supposed to for the main application. This is the case regardless if I load via the cake helpers or using standard tagging. Now I do not have any issues loading plugin image assets using the helper and the plugin path "/plugin_name/img/". So, I can only assume that this is all related to the rewriting of the CSS and JS paths for the compression option. So, is there a way to override the path rewriting for the plugin assets? Can my plugin define it's own config to compress its CSS and JS files separately (this would be nice to implement later on, but not necessary)? Am I just completely off-base with my approach to this situation altogether, lol? I would like to keep all the plugin files (including the assets) inside the plugin folder for numerous reasons. Therefore, I'd like to avoid the alternative solution that would require files to be placed in the main application (not inside the plugin folder) if at all possible.
