I have an issue with compass Im not able to find out.
Every time I compile, when compass find a intruction like:
#import "base-icons/*.png";
Compass throw:
WARNING: Compass::SpriteImporter should define the #public_url method.
Actually, it compiles and everything is working fine.
Unfortunately, I cannot find information about this issue, and I hate to see warnings on my console.
Anyone know what could be happening ? How can I get rid of this ? Or which are the consequences of this message, what does it mean ?
Thanks in advance !
The issue is reflected here:

And solved on the release tagged as: "import-once-1.0.4"

Our system is using compass to compile sass files. Following the same workflow as usual today when I run compass compile there is a long pause followed by "killed" with no errors or warning.
I'm not even sure how to troubleshoot this issue. Has anyone else run into a similar problem? If so, how did you solve it?
Thank you in advance...
update
I have been through the code and I cannot find a pattern to it not compiling. After making a minor change it compiled successfully making another minor change it failed. Each time I believe the problem is resolved, I make a change that's very small in scope and it breaks it again... for example removing and id (#main) from a definition stops the compile... putting it back does not fix the problem... adding a comment fixes the problem... remove it and it stays fixed, until I make another change .... I've matched my braces and gone over every change made in the last 3 days... I cannot find a cause for the error, or why its not behaving consistently
If other commands on the server die with a "Killed" error message, it could be a resource issue. Check your server logs for out of memory errors.
I'm new dev environments and to get to grips with sass. I've installed compass and a few other gems, Im trying to use live reload to help update the browser, but it won't play nice;
LoadError on line ["55"] of /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.0/usr/lib/ruby/2.0.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb: cannot load such file -- compass/import-once/activate
Run with --trace to see the full backtrace
screen.scss: compilation failed.
I'm not sure what's happening here, could any one shed a little light on the subject and preferably point me to a good resource?
Resolved the issue after a little more googling;
LiveReload plugin
Hopefully this ill help anyone else stuck in the same boat :)
I am new to SASS. I am using this as a guide to learn Bourbon -
http://www.git-tower.com/learn/bourbon-neat-bitters/getting-ready/introduction
I followed all the instructions and it displays fine on my local machine. But when I edit _layout.scss, it doesn't compile to styles.css. I installed Compass and had it watch the project folder, but same results. My changes won't take.
Am I missing a step?
This is likely more of a sass importing/file-name issue than anything specifically with bourbon. I'd check out http://sass-lang.com/guide . Sass-lang put together a really nice guide to sass that includes things like imports, etc.
Also, Compass app can bring some things to the party that can conflict with Bourbon. I'd recommend using the sass app or a desktop app like https://prepros.io which can be easier starting out.
Hope this helps 🍻
So I'm designing a website and I stumbled upon a nice tool for fluid design called Profound Grid. http://www.profoundgrid.com/
I thought it would be very useful and decided to use it, but I find the documentation is meagre at best, and there is little to no help around the internet, the website doesn't even have a contact us button...
The website said that the Profound Grid was created and is used with SASS.
I've installed ruby and SASS successfully and am able to use them just fine, but when I try to use the Profound Grid; which is done by importing a file into your style sheet, the SASS converter gives me an error:
error grid/_grid.scss (Line23: File to import not found or unreadable: compass/utilities/general/clearfix.)
The Profound Grid system uses only one file to function, which is imported into your style sheet, and that is the "_grid.scss", I opened it and found this on the 23rd line:
#import "compass/utilities/general/clearfix";
It appears the grid system imports and uses a file from compass...
To fix this problem I installed the compass gem but I still get the same error message, it cannot locate the clearfix file even though I should have it installed.
To test my compass installation I tried just importing compass like this:
#import 'compass';
An error came up telling me that compass couldn't be located either, so I think there might be something wrong with me compass installation or the way I am importing it.
Have I installed compass wrong?
Is there something wrong with the way compass is being imported? Perhaps the wrong path?
If there is anyone out there with experience with Compass, SASS or Profound Grid I would much appreciate some help.
You have to use the compass command-line tool to compile it. For example:
compass compile
Strange that this piece of software is not distributed as a Compass extension.
I'm using Compass Sprite helpers in a project which works great. However the generation of the sprite adds quite a few seconds to the project compile time and most of the time I do not need it regenerated.
Is there a way to turn off the sprite generation and get compass to use the last generated file?
I'm using CodeKit and I'll be easily confused by much talk of command line / Ruby!
I've just tried it, and for me Compass does not recompile my sprites unless i modify the contents of the sprites folder:
$ compass compile
unchanged images/sexy-sce786a2ec5.png
overwrite stylesheets/screen.css
Try compiling your project with the compass command line tool instead of CodeKit. If it works out, please check that CodeKit uses Compass to compile your project and not vanilla SASS.
It looks like a CodeKit issue which is getting fixed:
https://github.com/bdkjones/CodeKit/issues/297
Until then I am using a workaround detailed here.
It looks as if compass compile with no other arguments (as per Andrey 'lolmaus's answer) does not cause this, but if there are any arguments at all it sets the :force option to true, and one of the consequences of that is that sprites are forcibly recreated.
That seems like crazy behaviour?
For the moment I've edited lib/compass/commands/update_project.rb (specifically, in my case, ~/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p429/gems/compass-0.12.4/lib/compass/commands/update_project.rb) and commented out the parser.options[:force] = true line in the parse_arguments! function at the end of that file.
(note the unless arguments.empty? condition)
That seems to have disabled sprite generation entirely (i.e. even when you need it), but I can enable it manually with compass compile --force ...
That's certainly good enough for me.
