Symfony2 Assetic dump when using multiple kernels - php

Question

Using Symfony 2.7. I made my application in multiple kernels. My folder structure is like this:
Project
|
+-- app/
| |
| +-- candy/ // all config, parameters, kernel for candy application
| +-- vegetable/ // all config, parameters, kernel for vegetable application
|
+-- src/
+-- bin/
+-- vendor/
|
+-- web/
|
+-- candy/ // all assets, images, js etc. for candy application
+-- vegetable/ // all assets, images, js etc. for vegetable application
Now when I want to install assets i simply do:
php app/candy/console assets:install web/candy/
this works, however when I do:
php app/candy/console assetic:dump web/candy/
it searches for files in web/ directory, not in web/candy/bundles/../.
Why is that and what can be the solutions?
My base.html.twig:
{% block stylesheets %}
{% stylesheets
'bundles/mpshop/css/jquery-ui.css'
'bundles/mpshop/css/bootstrap.min.css'
'bundles/mpshop/css/style.css'

'bundles/mpshop/slick/slick-theme.css'

filter='cssrewrite'
%}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset_url }}" />
{% endstylesheets %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
{% endblock %}

Answer 1

You should set the "write_to" directory in the config for each kernel.
app/candy/config/config.yml
assetic:
//...
write_to: '%kernel.root_dir%/../../web/candy'
app/vegetable/config/config.yml
assetic:
//...
write_to: '%kernel.root_dir%/../../web/vegetable'
Just as a side note, why is it that you are using multiple kernels?
I've heard the possibility of it but never seen the benefits so am interested in the thinking.
