My own conf settings

Hi there!

After reading up in the wiki, I was wondering about adding a certain configuration variable to my rails app. What's the "best way to do it"? What are you using?

I'm coming from Django, where you have a settings object you import from django.conf.settings. This provides for a unique point to check on settings. It also makes it easy to fake settings for testing purposes using a mock'ed settings object.

What's the idea behind rails settings? Just global vars? A certain object's properties, like in django? Are they just vars "injected" into the environment? Where do I check and maybe alter the settings in runtime?

I'm aware that some of the above might not be "the path to light", but my engineer mind needs to understand it all, how it works, in and out. And rails is anything but transparent, with all that magic :wink:

Thanks everyone!

You can add your own settings to configuration class. Look in your config/environment.rb. Here is some documentation on it 美女扒开双腿露出尿口无内裤图片_强壮公的侵犯让我高潮不断_日本护士吞精囗交gif_性欧美丰满熟妇xxxx性.

What I do:

# in config/environment.rb

Module Site   HOME_PLANET = 3 end

Then you can call on Site::HOME_PLANET from anywhere.

Rails 2 also allows for loading config settings from any file under config/initializers/ so you can modularize and organize even further.
