Question

My baseUrl path for jQuery ajax requests is different in development and production mode. How can I set it in some kind of config.ini file to switch it easily. Rightnow I’m using a baseurl.js file containing just baseurl path. In production mode, I change this variable via shell script.

What should be better approach?

edit

To make things little clearer,

 $.ajax({
   type: "GET",
   url: myurl,
   dataType: "script"
 });

Here ‘myurl’ var is different for production and development.

PS: My question is not about version control or packing files into one.

If you are using some dynamic pages technology (asp, php, …) then you could turn your baseurl.js file to a dynamic one like baseurl.js.php and inside it print the current url . (if that is what you are asking).

• for php look at $_SERVER
• for asp look at Request.ServerVariables
