RoR Devise: Sign in with username OR email

Question

What\'s the best way to enable users to log in with their email address OR their username? I am using warden + devise for authentication. I think it probably won\'t be too h

I wrote like this and it works out. Don't know if it's "ugly fix", but if I'll come up with a a better solution I'll let you know...

 def self.authenticate(email, password)
   user = find_by_email(email) ||
     username = find_by_username(email)
   if user && user.password_hash = BCrypt::Engine.hash_secret(password, user.password_salt)
     user
   else
     nil
   end
end
