README.md

Configure Dnsmasq to respond to *.dev

Assuming it's been installed using Homebrew.

Add the following to dnsmasq.conf (/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf).

address=/dev/127.0.0.1

Stop and start the service:

sudo launchctl stop homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq
sudo launchctl start homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq

Add a resolver

Create /etc/resolver/dev and add the following line:

nameserver 127.0.0.1

Add Apache Virtual Host

This assumes Passenger is already installed.

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName gofreerange.dev
  ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com

  PassengerRuby /Users/chrisroos/.rbenv/versions/2.1.5/bin/ruby
  RackEnv development

  DocumentRoot "/Users/chrisroos/Code/freerange/site"
  <Directory "/Users/chrisroos/Code/freerange/site">
