/auth/spotify route is not working

[ljrzarate]

Hi, Hope you are doing great
I have an issue hopefully you can help me to solve this:
I add this to my omniauth.rb initializer:

require 'rspotify/oauth'

Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :spotify,
           ENV["spotify_client_id"],
           ENV["spotify_secret_key"],
           scope: 'user-read-email user-read-private playlist-modify-public user-library-read user-library-modify streaming',
end

but then when I try to use the route /auth/spotify I'm getting always a 404. Do i need to do something else somewhere?

I'm using Rails 5 and Ruby 2.3.0

Thanks!

@ljrzarate did you ever get this to work? I'm running into the same issue /w Rails 5. Any insight would be appreciated!

Hello, just wanted to add that I am having this same issue, also using rails 5 and ruby 2.3.0

Edit: I was able to get it to work just by restarting the terminal I was running the rails server from!

Incase anyone runs into this as I did, the version of omniauth used now requires it to be a post request, so either you need to make your link a post

<%= link_to 'Sign in with Spotify', '/auth/spotify', method: :post %>

or add

OmniAuth.config.allowed_request_methods = [:post, :get]

to your initializer

Thanks for the heads up @mattdrewitt! In case anyone else needs it, after this I also needed to add omniauth-rails_csrf_protection to validate the CSRF token, which then required me to have to explicitly add omniauth to my Gemfile, so that CSRF's railtie worked.
