in rails set config.action_mailer.default_url_options to whatever the current host of the app is?

How can I dynamically set the host in a config/environments/production.rb:

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => THE_HOST}

This is so the app works correctly when in staging and when in production. Our staging server is stage.app.com, and links need to go there.

Add this to a before filter in application_controller:

ActionMailer::Base.default_url_options = {:host => request.host_with_port}

In config/environments/production.rb do this:

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'app.com' }

and in config/environments/staging.rb do this:

config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'stage.app.com' }

As @BrettBender commented:

You do not need to dynamically set the host. For an app in production, production.rb will be evaluated. For an app running in staging environment, rails will load the staging file automatically (same with development or any custom environments you define)
