Rails define root url based on Rails Environment

Question

Is there any way to define different root url based on Rails environment. I want to set root :to => 'pages#index' for development and staging environment and root :to => 'beta_pages#index' for production environment.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Yes, you can do that.

In your routes.rb file:

  if Rails.env.development? || Rails.env.staging?
    root :to => 'pages#index'
  elsif Rails.env.production?
    root :to => 'beta_pages#index'
  end
