Authentication in Ruby on Rails Cheat Sheet

New page

'''Secure user authentication in ruby on rails''' is discussed here.

Implementing authentication in a typical Rails application is made easy with devise gem.

Install it using:

gem 'devise'

Then install it to the user model:

rails generate devise:install

Next, specify which resources (routes) require authenticated access in your routes, config/routes.rb:

<syntaxhighlight lang="ruby" line='line'>
Rails.application.routes.draw do
authenticate :user do
resources :something do # these resource require authentication
...
end
end

devise_for :users # sign-up/-in/out routes

root to: 'static#home' # no authentication required

end
</syntaxhighlight>

To make authentication secure, enforce higher password complexity and allow TLS connections only.
