Expected/desired behavior: Absolute path support for font loading

• If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem along with a gist/jsbin of your webpack configuration. Try to insert fonts on any rails/webpack project

• What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior? It would be cool if it supported absolute paths

• Language: all

Hi @tomislav-s!

Thanks for the report! I've looked into it and created an issue (#308) with the sass-loader. It looks like they don't respect the resolve.root option in Webpack config that should fix this.

We extract the user part of the manifest file directly from require, import, or in this case @import statements from your code.

There is a workaround. If you read thru the options documentation where you'll see the mapAssetPath function. There you can rewrite the erroneous items.

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask.
