Rails : render and exit immediately

Question

Using the omniauth gem, I am forced to define a single route callback for succesful logins, regardless of the provider :

def auth_callback 

        auth_data =          


        

Answer 1

If you want to return from the chain of methods, e.g.

def a
  ...
  b
  ...
  render "smth"
end
...
def b
  ...
  # render from some conditional from here
  ...
end

will cause AbstractController::DoubleRenderError, which means that you call render twice.
