A repository demonstrating a bug with initializers in Bridgetown 1.2.0.beta4

Bridgetown initializer bug repository

This repository demonstrates a bug in Bridgetown 1.2.0.beta4 where initializers do not allow the url property to change in development mode.

When using bridgetown.config.yml to set the url property, Bridgetown is able to override the value when doing local development.

Instructions

1. Run bin/setup to install dependencies
2. Run bin/bt dev to start the development server
3. Navigate to https://localhost:4000 and see that the URL for the site is https://localhost:4000 on the page and the absolute URL for the page is https://localhost:4000/
4. Stop the server
5. Uncomment config/initializers.rb:2
6. Run bin/bt dev to start the development server
7. Navigate to https://localhost:4000 and see that the URL for the site is now https://example.com on the page and the absolute URL for the page is https://localhost:4000/
8. Compare bridgetown.config.yml and config/initializers.rb to see that they are configured the same
