You can mount css-annotate in your Web app (Rails 3.x, Padrino, etc) to serve annotated versions of all CSS, SCSS and SASS files. For example, to mount all files from public/stylesheets under the path /stylesheets/annotated:
mount CSS::Annotate.new=>"/stylesheets/annotated"
With yout browser, you can now access the CSS file /stylesheets/screen.css and its annotated version from /stylesheets/annotated/screen.css.
To mount files from a different path, pass it as the sole argument to CSS::Annotate. For example:
mount CSS::Annotate.new("app/views/stylesheets")=>"/stylesheets/annotated"
With your browser, you can now access the annotated SCSS file /stylesheets/annotated/screen.scss. Note that both filename and extension must match the file you want annotated.
