How do you change the iframe address used by Meteor Velocity

Question

I am using Codio for my Meteor development, so my app is not hosted at localhost:3000 when I'm previewing it, it's actually at random-name.codio.io:3000, which I have to get to by visiting random-name-3000.codio.io, so when Velocity fires up its iframe to run client-side tests on it has the wrong address, like so: <iframe src="http://localhost:5000/?mocha=true&lastModified=1427105608181">.

How do I convince Velocity to use random-name-5000.codio.io as its src instead of localhost:5000?

Try something like this when running the app, i think it's not correctly setting the app url root:

ROOT_URL=http://random-name.codio.io:3000 meteor --port=3000

I'm having the same issue with Cloud9. Any tips there? I've tried setting the ROOT_URL to the same sort of thing. Cloud 9 requires running the meteor app in the form: meteor --port $IP:$PORT The environment is: IP = 0.0.0.0 PORT:8080 But when I go to the app the url is like: https://appname-username.c9.io and no ports are specified. – James Oltmans Apr 14 '15 at 06:29
