Based on railstutorials.org, I've written my method to check whether it is admin or not inside sessions_helper.rb. Now in model I've to insert data to temporary table lets assume "*user_temp_table*", if it is normal user that has logged in. Later those entries will be approved by admin. If it is admin himself logged in I want to insert data to permanent table lets assume "*admin_table".*
Now where is the best place to call admin checking method which I have written inside sessions_helper.rb. I have two possibilities. 1. Set a flag to 1 or 0 inside controller and access that flag variable from model if it is admin or user respectively. Problem: But I found some blogs and stackoverflow posts stating that controller is just a bridge between view and model. And variables inside controller should not be accessed from model. Addition to that I don't know how to access controller variable from model. If this is the method please tell me how? 2. include SessionHelper inside model and call the method. But posts I found related to both of these solutions are very old. So in rails 4 which is the valid and good way to carry out this task? Or is there is any other new way?
