How to set default port for Webrick?

Question

I want to set the default port when I do

rails s

to 3010, instead of having to say:

rails s -p 3010

...every time. Any ideas?

Answer 1

You can override the Port by adding the following code to config/boot.rb

require 'rails/commands/server'
module Rails
  class Server
    alias :default_options_alias :default_options
    def default_options
      default_options_alias.merge!(:Port => 3010)
    end    
  end
end
