Getting absolute path to the file inside the public folder in Rails
What is the best way to get absolute path to the file inside the public folder in controller? Is there a predefined Rails variable that holds absolute path to the public folder?
Currently I'm using File.expand_path('../../../public', __FILE__), but I'm sure there's a nicer way of doing this.
