Node_modules can not be copied

[owen2345]

Expected behavior

Having configured the following in app/assets/config/manifest.js

  //= link_tree ../../../node_modules/@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/webfonts/

And precompiled with: rails assets:precompile
The expected fonts (*.ttf files) should be copied to public/assets/

Actual behavior

The expected fonts (*.ttf files) are not copied to public/assets/

System configuration

• Sprockets version: 4.0.2
• Ruby version: 3.1.0

Example App (Reproduction) -

• Add font awesome to the app
  yarn add @fortawesome/fontawesome-free
• Edit app/assets/config/manifest.js to copy fonts when compiling assets
  //= link_tree ../../../node_modules/@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/webfonts/
• Compile assets
  rails assets:precompile

Is node_modules is your assets paths?

[rafaelfranca]

Can you provide an example application that reproduce the issue?

FWIW I tried to reproduce this, but couldnt (Although I approached it slightly differently by importing the CSS into the application.js file)

^ Generated via:

rails new -j esbuild
yarn add @fortawesome/fontawesome-free

EDIT: Got this to fail. Never called font-family

Update, I got the repo to fail. I never called font-family on a selector. Repo has been updated with failure.
