module Authlogic module ActiveRecord # = Authenticates Many # # This allows you to scope your authentication. For example, let's say all users belong to an account, you want to make sure only users # that belong to that account can actually login into that account. Simple, just do: # # class Account < ActiveRecord::Base # authenticates_many :user_sessions # end # # Now you can scope sessions just like everything else in ActiveRecord: # # @account.user_sessions.new(*args) # @account.user_sessions.create(*args) # @account.user_sessions.find(*args) # # ... etc # # For more information on scopes check out the scopes section in the README. module AuthenticatesMany # Allows you set essentially set up a relationship with your sessions. See module definition above for more details. # # === Options # # * session_class: default: "#{name}Session", # This is the related session class. # # * relationship_name: default: options[:session_class].klass_name.underscore.pluralize, # This is the name of the relationship you want to use to scope everything. For example an Account has many Users. There should be a relationship # called :users that you defined with a has_many. The reason we use the relationship is so you don't have to repeat yourself. The relatonship # could have all kinds of custom options. So instead of repeating yourself we essentially use the scope that the relationship creates. # # * find_options: default: nil, # By default the find options are created from the relationship you specify with :relationship_name. But if you want to override this and # manually specify find_options you can do it here. Specify options just as you would in ActiveRecord::Base.find. # # * scope_cookies: default: false # By the nature of cookies they scope theirself if you are using subdomains to access accounts. If you aren't using subdomains you need to have # separate cookies for each account, assuming a user is logging into mroe than one account. Authlogic can take care of this for you by # prefixing the name of the cookie and sessin with the model id. You just need to tell Authlogic to do this by passing this option. def authenticates_many(name, options = {}) options[:session_class] ||= name.to_s.classify.constantize options[:relationship_name] ||= options[:session_class].klass_name.underscore.pluralize class_eval <<-"end_eval", __FILE__, __LINE__ def #{name} find_options = #{options[:find_options].inspect} || #{options[:relationship_name]}.scope(:find) find_options.delete_if { |key, value| ![:conditions, :include, :joins].include?(key.to_sym) || value.nil? } @#{name} ||= Authlogic::ActiveRecord::ScopedSession.new(#{options[:session_class]}, find_options, #{options[:scope_cookies] ?
