Hello,
I'm setting up an authentication module that will be called from
application.rb. I want to save a rrequest.request_uri into a
session to be used as a place holder that
will take users back to the page they were on before they logged in.
I'm trying to call the store_location method for all methods EXCEPT
login by putting login in an except before filter.
For some reason, when I login the last request.request_uri address that
is stored in the session is /login. For some reason, the
store_location method is still getting called when the login method is
called and then throws a "Redirect Loop" message in the brower
Here's the authentication module code:
[code]
module Authentication
def store_location
session['return-to'] = request.request_uri
end
def login
user = User.find_authenticated_user(params[:username],
params[:password])
unless user.blank? || user.nil?
session[:user] = user
end
redirect_to store_location
end
end
and here's the code I have so far in application.rb
[/code]
[code]
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
before_filter :verify_user, :except => :login
before_filter :store_location, :except => :login
include Authentication
helper :all # include all helpers, all the time
# See ActionController::RequestForgeryProtection for details
# Uncomment the :secret if you're not using the cookie session store
protect_from_forgery #:secret => 'f2966dd9b280aee941288062544d2aa9'
def index
end
end
[/code]
Any ideas how I can make this work?
Thanks,
Clem
