warden

I'm using Devise with Ruby on Rails. What is the recommended way to redirect unauthenticated users to the sessions#new page if they attempt to access a page that requires authentication? Right now I get an error that says no route matches the one they attempt to access (leading to a 404 error in production). Just simple add this method to application_controller.rb protected def authenticate_user! if user_signed_in? super else redirect_to login_path, :notice => 'if you want to add a notice' ## if you want render 404 page ## render :file => File.join(Rails.root, 'public/404'), :formats => [:html

I was able to use Devise's sign_in method to log in a user in my controller specs. But now that I'm removing Devise from my application, I'm not quite sure how to get similar functionality working with just Warden on its own. How should I go about setting up spec/spec_helper.rb and related spec/support/*.rb files to get Warden running within controller specs sufficiently? I've tried setting up a file at spec/support/warden.rb with these contents: RSpec.configure do |config| config.include Warden::Test::Helpers config.after do Warden.test_reset! end end Then I have before calls similar to this
