css - custom fonts not working in my rails app? -

i'm trying use custom font in rails app, can't figure out i'm doing wrong. i've created folder called fonts in assets folder 2 fonts i'm using. , call 2 fonts in css file called home.css.scss.erb

css:

@font-face { font-family: 'proxima nova';     src: url('<%= asset_path(/assets/fonts/proximanova-regular.otf) %>', font); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; }  @font-face { font-family: 'gotham';     src: url('<%= asset_path(/assets/fonts/gotham-medium.ttf) %>', font); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; }  

then in config folder in application.rb i've added

config.assets.paths << "#{rails.root}/app/assets/fonts" 

but still doesn't seem working.. ideas why?

i've used custom fonts before never need use asset_path helper. using relative path in css should enough. settings similar these:

# config/application.rb config.assets.paths << rails.root.join("assets", "fonts")  # css @font-face {   font-family: 'proxima nova';       // no need embeded ruby code here   src: url('fonts/proximanova-regular.otf') format('opentype');   font-weight: normal;   font-style: normal; }  @font-face {   font-family: 'gotham';       src: url('fonts/gotham-medium.ttf') format('truetype');   font-weight: normal;   font-style: normal; }
