FYI: dartsass-sprockets gem released (upgrade of sassc-rails gem)

[johnnyshields]

I've released the following gems:

• dartsass-sprockets, an upgrade of sassc-rails
• dartsass-ruby, an upgrade of sassc-ruby which is mostly a compatibility shim for feature differences between SassC and Dart Sass. (This is planned to be removed.)

These gems use sass-embedded under the hood, which provides Ruby native interface for Dart Sass.

The SassC gem maintainers were unresponsive so I went ahead and released a gem to benefit Sprockets users. The code is a bit of kludge at the moment. I'd be glad if Rails team wants to take these over, as the current dartsass-rails gem doesn't seem to gel as well (dartsass:watch and all is too much for a troglodyte developer like me to handle 🦖)

Does it mean this gem supports assets helpers such as the image-url ? Currently this is a bigger issue with dartsass-rails and requires adding a workaround such as this helper inside an initializer that is shared in many places on the Internet:

class AssetUrlProcessor
  ...

UPDATE: please disregard the above, sprockets-rails+dartsass-rails just solved this issue rails/sprockets-rails#513 (ie. change the image-url to url and it'll use fingerprinted assets)
