authlogic

Can you suggest some working example of it? I tried Authlogic and Devise withous success. UPDATE - June 2011 - I have been using the omniauth gem recently and I think it is a better solution than using the gems suggested in this answer. It works well with Devise and will give you everything you need in one gem. I created an engine that combines Devise and Omniauth and adds a controller to handle the callbacks. I have quite a few changes planned for the gem and right now I don't consider it a stable plugin, but you may be able to reuse some of the code in the gem: https://github.com/charlotte

I am running BDD steps with cucumber to implement my autlogic login behavior. Scenario: log in Given a registered user: "test@test.com" with password: "p@ssword" exists And I am on the homepage When I follow "Log in" And I fill in "Username" with "test@test.com" And I fill in "Password" with "p@ssword" And I open the page And I press "Login" And I open the page Then I should see "Login successful!" And I should see "Logout" this is my scenario and when I hit Then I should see "Login successful!" my cucumber step fails but only in webrat. I debugged with launchy and when the web-page appeard

I'm looking for a solution allowing me to check periodically if the user session has expired and if so redirect him to the login page. I'm using Authlogic gem, so what I'm doing is call a function that make a test on current_user. My USER_SESSION_TIMEOUT is 5minutes so I make this ajax call every 5:10 minutes. <%= periodically_call_remote :url => {:controller => 'user_session', :action => 'check_session_timed_out'}, :frequency => (USER_SESSION_TIMEOUT + 10.seconds) %> def check_session_timed_out if !current_user flash[:login_notice] = "Your session timed out due to a period of inactivity.

I have a form where I collect a lot of information in Rails. Part of this form is fields for a new user to register. Since Devise has controllers/actions specifically to create a new user, I don't know how to programmatically create a user in an entirely different action that also creates another record. I really can't have the user registration form separate. I can't figure out how to create a user, and then log the user in, like I could easily do in Authlogic. I have used both Authlogic and Devise, and think each has their strengths and weaknesses. With Devise, I love how quick it is to "get

I've previously implemented Authlogic for authorization on my site. Now however I wish to switch over to using Devise instead, and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Perhaps anyone's seen a blog post on the subject? Thank you. I myself switched from Authlogic to Devise recently and also didn't find any articles. However, in the simple case, once you've thrown away all of your user_session and other authlogic-related code, the main piece of work is converting your old users table to the format expected by devise. My old table looked like this: Column | Type | Modifiers ------

I'm using Authlogic and I would like to implement Basic HTTP Authentication in my controller so I could define which action requires authentication.

For the life of me I don't understand why Authlogic isn't logging me in in this integration test. I haven't had any problems w/ Authlogic logging me in in functional tests using this code. According to the authlogic rdocs ( http://tinyurl.com/mb2fp2 ), simulating a logged-in state is the same in functional & integration tests, so i'm pretty confused. any help is MUCH appreciated! class TipsController < ApplicationController before_filter :require_user, :only => [:destroy, :undelete] def destroy @tip = Tip.find(params[:id]) if can_delete?(@tip) @tip.destroy set_flash("good", "Tip deleted. <a

I am trying to save the http_referer so I can send the user back to that url after he has logged in. Right now I have a before_filter in my controllers that sends them to a log in page if a session has not been created via a redirect_to. However when I check the HTTP_REFERER it is nil (whereas 'REQUEST_URI' does return where Im originally coming from). Thank you. HTTP_REFERER is an HTTP header set by the browser in the request containing the the address of the previous web page from which a link to the currently requested page was followed. It will not be set when directly navigating to a page
