How to use local javascript library for development and externally hosted for production?

Rails

Hi guys,

I want to set up my RoR project to use local javascript library for
development and externally hosted for production (for example jquery
from google). How it could be achieved?

Regards,
Alexey Zakharov

<% if RAILS_ENV=“production”>
javascript_include_tag
"http://somewhere.com/javascript_file_without_js
"
<% else %>
javascript_include_tag “javascript_file_without_js”
<% end %>

Best regards

Typo: <% if RAILS_ENV==“production”>

Another option is to create your own configuration file and use the
URL to the JavaScript file as a configuration variable.

See here: #85 YAML Configuration File - RailsCasts

As an aside, the RAILS_ENV constant is now deprecated; the new way to
do this test is:

if Rails.env.production?
