Devise controllers rails

Question

I\'m using Rails 3, on ruby 1.8.7. And using for auth. devise (1.1.3). But it is a quite large community site i\'m building, so i have a table for profiles and a table for users

Answer 1

You can subclass the Devise RegistrationsController and add your own logic in the create() method, and call the parent class methods for everything else.

class MyRegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
  prepend_view_path "app/views/devise"

  def create
    super
    # Generate your profile here
    # ...
  end

  def update
    super
  end
end

If you want to customise the Devise views that are packaged inside the Gem then you can run the following command to generate the view files for your app:

rails generate devise:views

You will also need to tell the router to use your new controller; something like:

devise_for :users, :controllers => { :registrations => "my_registrations" }
