Access public files in Rails
I want to access the file /public/images/dog.jpg in the Rails project. Is there some URL route that would access it?
I tried public/images/dog.jpg and images/dog.jpg, but it didn't work.

images/dog.jpg is correct.
However I would use the image_path URL route, e.g. image_path('dog.jpg').
