How to skip a before_filter for Devise's SessionsController?

Question

I have a before_filter in my ApplicationController; that is, for every controller in my project.

How can I skip_before_filter

Answer 1

new answer

what about wrapping the before_filter in an unless block filtering by params[:controller]

def some_before_action
  unless params[:controller] == "sessions_controller_for_devise_name"
      ... #=> do the stuff here
  end 
end

old answer

just authorize which actions should use the before filter

before_filter :action, :only => ...

and authorize your others.
