modified config/ environments/ development.rb to be able to connect to an email server. When I restart rails server I get an error

Doing my first rails development, modified config/ environments/ development.rb to be able to connect to an email server. When I restart rails server I get the following error message:

"...Ruby/learn-rails/config/environments/development.rb:39: syntax error, unexpected '=', expecting => (SyntaxError) ...default_url_options = { :host = > 'localhost: 3000' } ... ".

I don't see the syntax error, anyone see where i went wrong?

The code i added to the development.rb file looks like this:

   config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = { 
   address: "smtp.gmail.com", 
   port: 587, 
   domain: Rails.application.secrets.domain_name, 
   authentication: "plain", 
   enable_starttls_auto: true, 
   user_name: Rails.application.secrets.email_provider_username, 
   password: Rails.application.secrets.email_provider_password 
   }

# ActionMailer Config 

  config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host = > 'localhost: 3000'}
  config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp 
  config.action_mailer.raise_delivery_errors = true

Your problem is this line:

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host = > 'localhost: 3000'}

your hashrocket has a space in it... try:

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'localhost: 3000'}

Also, in future, that stacktrace gives you the precise line-number that the error is on:

 Ruby/learn-rails/config/environments/development.rb:39

this says that the problem is on line 39 of config/environments/development.rb You can go to precisely that line in your text editor to look for the error it's complaining about.
