Authlogic Engine

A simple engines-based wrapper for Authlogic. Provides basic models, controllers, routing and specs for RESTfully-accessed User and UserSession objects.

Requirements

• Rails 2.3+
• authlogic gem/plugin
• engines-helper plugin
• Haml (optional, but if you don't want to use it, you'll have to override the views)

Installation

As a submodule:

git submodule add git://github.com/hpoydar/authlogic-engine.git vendor/plugins/authlogic-engine

Direct installation:

script/plugin install git://github.com/hpoydar/authlogic-engine.git

Run the migrations after the code is installed

rake engines:sync:migrations

Usage

The plugin provides the following paths and controller methods, all of which can be overridden and/or extended (along with the authlogic functionality):

• /signup, which uses UsersController#new
• /profile, which uses UsersController#show, #edit and #update
• /login and /logout, which use UserSessions#new, #destroy
• A current_user helper method for use across controllers and views in your app

A controller helper method for use with a before_filter throughout your application is also provided:

require_logged_in_user

To quickly override the successful login, logout or signup redirect destination, add the following to an environment or initializer: (Defaults to '/')

AuthlogicEngine.login_destination = your_custom_path
AuthlogicEngine.logout_destination = your_custom_path
AuthlogicEngine.signup_destination = your_custom_path
