Detect when a devise session expires

Question

I\'d like to record when a user\'s session has timed out, using devise and :timeoutable.

At the moment, :timeoutable is working as expected

Answer 1

I think what you need to do is logging the time when the user clicks "Log out" explicitly. Because :timeoutable has a default time period after which user session will automatically expire.

You can do logging "log out" activity by creating a Sessions_Controller which inherits from Devise::SessionsController. After logging current time, don't forget to do super.
