Hi everybody, 1 month ago or so I wrote a small authentication plugin for my current Rails project. I had some reasons behind this so you don’t need to question that. 🙂 On the other hand I realized that it’s impossible to extend the ActionController::Base#verify method without writing up a complete new verification. Getting along with Rails RESTful routing doesn’t always work for me so I’m stuck with #verify. I wrote a new verification.rb that’s complete backwards compatible. It’s very easy extendendable and should work well with coming Rails builtin HTTP authentication. Ok, I posted a ticket on dev (feed://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/9627) so please give me your thoughts… 🙂 Cheers Florian ---
