I am developing a Ruby on Rails app that should have social authorizations (the ability to log in via Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc., similar to StackOverflow). For this, I am using the omniauth gem.

However, it looks like the web services (Facebook, Twitter, etc) will redirect to only one URL.

Is a best practice to set up two apps with the services, one for development, one for production? The development one’s redirect URL should be something like “localhost:3000/redirect/here” and the production one should be something like “mydomain.com/redirect/here”?

I am curious what other people have done for this.

    You can either setup up different accounts and load the configuration based on the environment or create local aliases for your production domain so http://www.mydomain.com = localhost:3000
