HI Guys,

I recently tried VERY hard to override the database configuration bassed on 
ENV vars or actual API calls. This task is almost next to impossible. 

I know that the database.yml file is parsed as ERB but that is sane for 
simple ENV replacement if you want to actually change which database 
adaptor it is (requires extra config/params) it becomes messy. 

I found https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/5297  which explains the 
issue/solution far better then I could. 

Active record supports this natively, I can't see why rails would force the 
requirement of a database.yml and for it to have a "production" section. 
see http://apidock.com/rails/ActiveRecord/Base/establish_connection/class 
URL section.

Regards

David
