Examples given in the Quick Start by DM suggest this: >> You need make sure this is set before you define your models.
and as an example, comes: >> DataMapper.setup(:default, 'mysql://localhost/the_database_name') The problem is WHY we should DECLARE the name/URL of the database in the CODE? And if we wanted to change the DB? After all DM is an abstraction layer to the low-level DB concerns. The best practice tells that all these should go in the CONFIGURATION files. Or I might be mistaken and the example given in the Quick Start article is about the CONFIG files. Am I missing something on this?
