Right now I'm using this which works for the development host, but I have to manually change the {:host => ""} code when I move to production.
def share_all
url = Rails.application.routes.url_helpers.post_url(self, :host => 'localhost:3000')
if user.authentications.where(:provider => 'twitter').any?
user.twitter_share(url)
end
end
I'd like to use this and then define the default_url_options per environment:
def share_all
url = Rails.application.routes.url_helpers.post_url(self)
if user.authentications.where(:provider => 'twitter').any?
user.twitter_share(url)
end
end
I've tried adding this to my config/environments/development.rb but I still get the "Missing host to link to! Please provide :host parameter or set default_url_options[:host]" error
config.action_controller.default_url_options = {:host => "localhost:3000"}
And I even tried it this way:
config.action_controller.default_url_options = {:host => "localhost", :port => "3000"}
EDIT:
I've now also followed this and still the same error guide http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html#default_url_options
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
protect_from_forgery
include ApplicationHelper
def default_url_options
if Rails.env.production?
{ :host => "example.com"}
else
{:host => "example1.com"}
end
end
end
This is driving me crazy, what am I missing here???
Okay I figured it out the correct way to write it is
Rails.application.routes.default_url_options[:host] = 'localhost:3000'
:)
