How to get absolute paths with javascript_include_tag?

Question

I'm working on Rails layout for pdf (using Pdfkit) and I need to include my javascript assets with absolute paths (full urls) because wkhtmltopdf doesn't see relative.

this:

= javascript_include_tag 'application'

is converted to this:

<script src="/assets/jquery.js?body=1"></script>
<script src="/assets/jquery_ujs.js?body=1"></script>
<script src="/assets/jquery.ui.core.js?body=1"></script>
<script src="/assets/jquery.ui.widget.js?body=1"></script>
<script src="/assets/jquery.ui.position.js?body=1"></script>
<script src="/assets/jquery.ui.menu.js?body=1"></script>
<!-- MUCH MORE :) -->

How can I get the same script tags with full urls?

// edit

= (javascript_include_tag 'application').gsub('="', "=\"#{ root_url }").html_safe

It's not about one file, but about 30, which are in assets pipeline in application.js — ciembor, Jul 14 '14 at 21:27

This should work

javascript_include_tag('application').delete("\n").gsub('="', "=\"#{ root_url }")

I think it will be the best solution for this case

<%= javascript_include_tag 'application', host: request.base_url %>
