I am building a site that will have several different branded versions of the same site in order to do some SEO coverage. e.g www.foo.com, www.foo.co.uk and www.bar.com
There are many discussions on sub-domains but I would like to come up with a solution to support the following: 1. multiple domains supported as virtual hosts on Apache acting as a proxy where I anticipate Rewrites to do maintenance pages, pick up cached pages etc. 2. Use Mongrels as the app server but they will access the same back- end Rails app running against the same database. 3. pick up the domain from the http header which will be used to determine which CSS to use, affiliate-id and where to store cached files from sort of look-up. 4. User only ever sees parameters in the url without any domain- specific information included i.e. www.foo.co.uk/quote/read not www.foo.co.uk/foo/quote/read 5. The session data will be domain specific. 6. Ability to over-ride views and come action controller classes by domain if necessary. I am a little confused about routes.rb, apache rewrites and some of the available plug-ins. So for example, where should I parse the http header? I would be grateful if someone could let me know if I am thinking about this in completely the wrong way. If not, are there any good information sources I should refer to? Should I post this to the depolyment list? Thank you.
