I have a web site that accesses Solr (a Lucene based search engine accessed via REST). I would like the configuration to be handled in the same was as database.yml. I envision a file called solr.yml that looks something like this in the config directory: development: url: http://dev.solr.example.com/search test: url: http://test.solr.example.com/search production: url: http://production.solr.example.com/search If I was to write this file how would I access it? Any pointers would be appreciated as it would aid testing and I have a couple of other projects that could use this technique.

you could code it yourself, i think there is a railscast that shows an easy way to do it. or you could use one of the many plugins or gems out there. i just recently used http://github.com/binarylogic/settingslogic/tree/master On Jan 9, 9:32 am, Peter Hickman <pete...-XZoyATsUNX5Wk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> I have a web site that accesses Solr (a Lucene based search engine > accessed via REST).

You can do
solr_conf = open(''path/to/solr.yml'', ''r'') {
|f| YAML.load(f) }
solr_conf now holds a hash with your parameteres. You can access it
simply by doing something like:
url = solr_conf[RAILS_ENV][:url]
