title: importing a CSS file from SCSS/Rails 3.2 w/sass-rails
body: <p>I've got a CSS file in vendor/assets/stylesheets, and I'd like to link to it in my application.css.scss file (or thereabouts). I was hoping that this would just render <code>@import</code> plus the asset path:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@import asset-path('lionbars.css', stylesheet)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But no such luck: I get</p>
  
  <pre><code>Invalid CSS after "@import ": expected uri, was "asset-path('lio..."
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Either I've got the syntax wrong, or it's because <a href="https://github.com/chriseppstein/compass/issues/613" rel="nofollow"><code>@import</code> doesn't accept dynamic strings</a>, but I'm not sure.</p>
  
  <p>So I see a few options. I can either:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Figure out the appropriate syntax, if it's just a syntax issue.</li>
  <li>Rename my file to application.css.scss.erb and replace other existing asset-path references to <code>&lt;%= asset_path('random/asset.png') %&gt;</code>. This makes my syntax highlighter very confused, and probably isn't all that efficient. Otherwise, this works.</li>
  <li>Rename my css file to <code>_lionbars.css.scss</code> and call <code>@import "lionbars"</code>. Two reasons I don't want to do this, is #1 generally speaking I don't want to touch vendored code, and #2 there's some IE8 specific stuff in there (<code>&lt;!--[if IE 8]&gt;blahblah&lt;![endif]--&gt;</code>) that can't go in an scss file, and I don't want to have to break the file up (and I'd still have to find a solution for the IE8 code and how to include that).</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>So, I'm hoping that the answer is #1, but I'm not sure. Any ideas?</p>
