How to disable “Cannot Render Console from…” on Rails

Question

I\'m using Ubuntu/vagrant as my development environment. I\'m getting these messages on rails console:

Started GET \"/assets/home-fcec5b5a277ac7c20cc9f45a209

You can whitelist single IP's or whole networks.

Say you want to share your console with 192.168.0.100. You can do this:

class Application < Rails::Application
  config.web_console.whitelisted_ips = '192.168.0.100'
end

If you want to whitelist the whole private network, you can do:

class Application < Rails::Application
  config.web_console.whitelisted_ips = '192.168.0.0/16'
end

If you don't wanna see this message anymore, set this option to false:

class Application < Rails::Application
  config.web_console.whiny_requests = false
end

Be careful what you wish for, 'cause you might just get it all

This is probably only for development purposes so you might prefer to place it under config/environments/development.rb instead of config/application.rb.
