How Create New Parameter set at Start Time?

Rails
1

I would like to be able to set a paramter during start up like:

ruby script\server -nodename testNode_1

… and would like to have access to this setting from models and/or
controllers.

Can someone point me in the right direction to get this working?

Regards

Thanks for the reply - but how do I grab the value if its passed from
the command line?

Homer,

—[ environment.rb ]—
module MyProjectName
MY_VAR = ‘rockin’
end

— [ in models or controlllers ]—
MyProjectName::MY_VAR

Note: You must restart ./script/server if you change variables in
environment.rb. They do not auto-reload like most other railities.

Hope this helps,
Zack
