authtrail VS Scenic

Storing successful and unsuccessful login attempts can help to detect suspicious attempts. If you are using Devise, you can use the authtrail gem for that.

You'll need to track user logins, then use that information in the notification emails you send your users. But first, you'll need a way of tracking user logins. This can be accomplished using a nifty gem called Authtrail, which also pairs well with Devise.

To model our Deliverable class, we will need a view. We will use the popular scenic gem, which provides some useful generators for creating views with their respective migrations, and utilities to handle views versioning.

If the data doesn't need to be close to real-time, and if your DB can handle a bit of load, I'd use a "batch" approach. To do this, I'd create a materialized view in your relational DB that you'd then refresh periodically. The easiest way to do this is with the `scenic` gem. Once you've done this, you can simply create a new model and set the `table_name` to the name of the materialized view, and then treat it as a regular model.

TIL about fx gem for storing triggers in schema.rb. That makes me so happy because scenic gem for creating database views is one of my favorites. Postgres is very powerful and it's great to see tools for exposing that through Rails.
