the password slice is pretty hackable. I also had a legacy user
model, more full featured than the salted user mixin. You simply
comment out the mixin in merb/merb-auth/setup.rb and roll your own
authenticate method. My User authenticate looks as follows:
def self.authenticate(email, password)
if user = self.activated.first(:email => email)
if validate_password(password, user.password_hash,
user.password_salt)
return user
end
end
false
end
I will publish on github a full app showing my user behavior.
Unfortunately, you'll need to wait a few more days for me to organize
my code.
