An Introduction to LiteStack for Ruby on Rails
Subsequently, we need a way to authenticate our users to associate prompts with them. Rather than using an incumbent like Devise, I chose to use a different approach. The authentication-zero gem can flexibly generate an authentication system, as opposed to including it as an engine. Conveniently, it comes with options such as:
- Generate a pre-built authentication system into a rails application
-
Everything was going great until I installed Devise!
If you don’t need a good amount of features that Devise brings to the table, I‘d skip it entirely. Look up has_secure_password, that will be enough for a vast amount of applications with authentication. Maybe combine with cancancan for authorization. Once you feel you have a grip on those, re-evaluate devise or take a look at https://github.com/lazaronixon/authentication-zero which will transparently integrate into your app instead of providing a Rube Goldberg machine (that’s what devise will feel like for beginners for a long time).

Authentication, Roles, and Authorization... oh my.
I keep going back and forth between Devise and something a little more friendly like authentication-zero gem for authentication.

Upgrading authentication-zero gem in project
For those that have used the authentication-zero gem or are familiar with its functionality, what is the best way to upgrade it in a project when new functionality is released?
- An authentication system generator for Rails applications.
- For Rails API-only authentication, do you go for a gem or 3D party service?

An Overview of Ruby on Rails 7.1 Features. Part III
True. I tend to stay away from gems that try to integrate into multiple parts of your app to provide some sort of comprehensive solution. The kinds of gems I recommend are: 1) libraries (you call into them when you need them) 2) mounted apps on a url, isolated from the rest of your app 3) generators (this one seems nice, the author mentioned it in another HN thread: https://github.com/lazaronixon/authentication-zero).

Time to think about swapping off Devise?
I prefer to use authentication-zero, which generates code for me in the same application using has_secure_password, has good security practices, uses the same functions as Rails, and allows me to modify the flow to my liking.

An Introduction to Devise for Ruby on Rails
Devise is an authentication library built on top of Warden, a Rack-based authentication framework.

A First Look at Hanami 2 for Ruby
In general, even though the Hanami ecosystem lacks any "plug-and-play" solutions such as Devise, you can use many existing libraries not tightly coupled to Ruby on Rails. For authentication, you can use Warden, OmniAuth or Rodauth. For uploads there is Shrine. The pagination is built into ROM. Integration with exception catchers such as Rollbar is easy.

Time to think about swapping off Devise?
There hasn't been a lot that has changed to how sessions are managed. Warden itself hasn't had much by way of updates in years, but you didn't even mention that.
-
Which authentication gems to use aside from devise?
Do you use system tests in authlogic? Devise (or more precisely, Warden) has has a helper that sets the user on next request.
-
Recommended Auth gem for Jr-level developers?
Devise is probably the most popular option out there. If you're learning to apply your skills in the wild then I'd recommend Devise. In my opinion, there's a learning curve, especially if you want to customize it more. You can also learn the underlying Ruby gem called warden.
-
What's going on with Devise for Rails 7 ?!
Warden perhaps? It's the actual authentication part Devise uses.
-
Devise only allow one session per user at the same time
Despite this approach works, it's polluting the controller with authentication logic. Given that Devise uses Warden under the hood, the same can be achieved by taking advantage of warden callbacks that will always get executed when a meaningful event is triggered.
