Configuring Rails Environment

= General Options =
For more detailed documentation, see the source code directly.
Each of these options should be prepended with config. when used with a
Rails::Initializer do |config| block.

breakpoint_server
Whether or not to use the breakpoint server (boolean)
cache_classes
Whether or not classes should be cached (set to false if you want
application classes to be reloaded on each request)
connection_adapters
The list of connection adapters to load.
By default, all connection adapters are loaded. You can set this to be
just the adapter(s) you will use to reduce your application's load time.
controller_paths
The list of paths that should be searched for controllers.
Defaults to app/controllers and components.
database_configuration_file
The path to the database configuration file to use.
Defaults to config/database.yml.
frameworks
The list of rails framework components that should be loaded.
Defaults to :active_record, :action_controller, :action_view,
:action_mailer, and :action_web_service.
load_paths
An array of additional paths to prepend to the load path.
By default, all app, lib, vendor and mock paths are included in this list.
log_level
The log level to use for the default Rails logger.
In production mode, this defaults to :info. In development mode, it
defaults to :debug.
log_path
The path to the log file to use.
Defaults to log/#{environment}.log (e.g. log/development.log or
log/production.log).
logger
The specific logger to use.
By default, a logger will be created and initialized using #log_path and
#log_level, but a programmer may specifically set the logger to use via
this accessor and it will be used directly.
view_path
The root of the application's views.
Defaults to app/views.
whiny_nils
Set to true if you want to be warned (noisily) when you try to invoke any
method of nil. Set to false for the standard Ruby behavior.
plugin_paths
The path to the root of the plugins directory.
By default, it is in vendor/plugins.


= ActiveRecord Options =
Each of these options should be prepended with config.active_record. when used
with a Rails::Initializer do |config| block.

primary_key_prefix_type
Accessor for the prefix type that will be prepended to every primary key
column name. The options are :table_name and :table_name_with_underscore.
If the first is specified, the Product class will look for “productid”
instead of “id” as the primary column. If the latter is specified, the
Product class will look for “product_id” instead of “id”. Remember
that this is a global setting for all Active Records.
table_name_prefix
The string to prepend to every table name.
By default, the prefix is an empty string
table_name_suffix
The same as table_name_prefix, but it appends the string to the table
name.
pluralize_table_names
Indicates whether or not table names should be the pluralized versions of
the corresponding class names.
Defaults to true.
colorize_logging
Should logs have ANSI color codes in logging statments?
Defaults to true
default_timezone
Determines whether to use Time.local (using :local) or Time.utc (using
:utc) when pulling dates and times from the database.
Defaults to :local by default.
allow_concurrency
Determines whether or not to use a connection for each thread, or a single
shared connection for all threads.
Defaults to false. Set to true if you're writing a threaded application.
generate_read_methods
Determines whether to speed up access by generating optimized reader
methods to avoid expensive calls to method_missing when accessing
attributes by name. You might want to set this to false in development
mode, because the methods would be regenerated on each request.
schema_format
Specifies whether to dump the database in ruby or sql. It takes :ruby or
:sql as options, and defaults to :ruby


= ActionController Options =
Each of these options should be prepended with config.action_controller. when

debug_routes
Enable or disable the collection of failure information for RoutingErrors.
Defaults to true.
allow_concurrency
Controls whether the application is thread-safe.
Defaults to false.
param_parsers
Lets you register handlers wich will process the http body and add
parameters to the @params hash.
Defaults to { Mime::XML => :xml_simple }
template_root
Sets the default template location. For example, a call to
render("test/template") will be converted to
"#{template_root}/test/template.rhtml"
logger
Can be set to nil for no logging or a logger conforming to the interface
of Log4r or the default Ruby 1.8+ Logger class.
ignore_missing_templates

making the associated templates.
