# what is the idiomatic ruby for this:
# if the var is an array, do_something with each element, otherwise just do something with the var
# if var.is_a?(Array)
# var.each do |element|
# do_something(element)
# end
# else

if Rails.env == 'development' or Rails.env == 'staging'
# ...
end
# So, an alternative Ruby way to do this is:
if %w(development staging).include?(Rails.env)
# ...
