Re: [Sdruby] build url with hostname

Yea, if this is actually a controller that inherits from ApplicationController you should be able to do something like this:

I'd like the hostname to by dynamic, but if I use:

 url_for :controller => "mycontroller", :action => "myaction"

I get the error:



I've also tried to get at, e.g., request.env[], but that too
is unknown in the controller (not sure why).

Is there a "right" way to build a url that includes the current
hostname, whatever it is?  I was also hoping not to have to
wire something into environment.rb, but maybe that's "correct".

At this point, I'm just trying to generalize user_notifier.rb

inherits from ActionMailer::Base (hmmm... is that the problem?).

Thanks.

link_to :controller => 'mycontroller', :action => 'myaction', :host => (request.protocol + request.host) If that doesn't work, your issue is probably that those methods aren't available to ActionMailer::Base. I didn't check myself so I'm not sure. Missing host to link to! Please provide :host parameter or set default_url_options[:host] in RestfulAuthentication so that I don't have to hardwire the hostname in the activation url that's sent out. This controller
