OpenID for Rails 3 installation and implementation howto

Rails

Hi,

Is there already an updated instructions to install and implement
OpenID for RoR application? All the ones I was able to find are
outdated and therefore pretty difficult to implement for a beginner
such as myself.

Thank you,

Kristjan

This is a great question - roll your own (which is a great learning
exercise
following along with trusted tutorials like:

Railscasts - Authentication from Scratch
http://blog.railsrumble.com/blog/2010/10/08/intridea-omniauth

Michael Hart’s Rails Tutorial:
http://ruby.railstutorial.org/chapters/modeling-and-viewing-users-one#top

OR - try out the various plugins and see which one you ‘connect’ with
like
OmniAuth, Devise, etc… (seems to be different for everyone)

OmniAuth: GitHub - omniauth/omniauth: OmniAuth is a flexible authentication system utilizing Rack middleware.

with a tutorial here:

Devise:

tutorial here:

A lot of early tutorials mention authlogic - which seems to be updated
for
Rails3 but I haven’t tested it…

Enjoy!
