The + users controller handles the registration and the sessions controller + handles authentication. This is similar to restful_authentication, but + simpler. + + IMPORTANT: This generator uses the "title" helper method which is generated + by the nifty_layout generator. You may want to run that generator first. + +Usage: + If you do not pass any arguments, the model name will default to "user", and + the authentication controller will default to "session". You can override + each of these respectively by passing one or two arguments. Either name can + be CamelCased or under_scored. + + Make sure to setup the authlogic gem if you are using that option. + + gem "authlogic" # in Gemfile + +Examples: + rails generate nifty:authentication + + Creates user model, users_controller, and sessions_controller. + + rails generate nifty:authentication account + + Creates account model, accounts_controller, and sessions_controller. + + rails generate nifty:authentication Account UserSession + + Creates account model, accounts_controller, and user_sessions_controller. + +Methods: + There are several methods generated which you can use in your application. + Here's a common example of what you might add to your layout. + + <% if logged_in? %> + Welcome <%= current_user.username %>! Not you? + <%= link_to "Log out", logout_path %> + <% else %> + <%= link_to "Sign up", signup_path %> or + <%= link_to "log in", login_path %>. + <% end %> + + You can also restrict unregistered users from accessing a controller using + a before filter. For example. + + before_filter :login_required, :except => [:index, :show] + + See the generated file lib/authentication.rb for details.
