MBOOP

This app keeps track of physical items as they move through a group of people. While initially designed for folders, you can easily repurpose it for other physical items too.

A simple USB scanner, with autofocus set to true, makes this Web app work without installing any firmware/software.

Find and validate user with their email address.

irb(main):001:0> User.find_by_email('new.person@va.gov')
=> #<User id: 00, email: "new.person@va.gov", encrypted_password: "xxxx...", reset_password_token: nil, reset_password_sent_at: nil, remember_created_at: "2017-02-15 15:46:07", sign_in_count: 39, current_sign_in_at: "2017-02-22 16:59:57", last_sign_in_at: "2017-02-22 15:09:20", current_sign_in_ip: "152.130.15.14", last_sign_in_ip: "152.130.15.14", created_at: "2016-10-17 14:00:15", updated_at: "2017-02-22 16:59:57", display_name: "New Person", admin: false, active: false>

irb(main):003:0> @b = User.find(00)
