Hi,
i used the rick olson’s restful_authentication plugin
rails 1.2.6
i wanted to check for authenticated user so i wrote this in my
application.rb
Filters
before_filter :authenticate
Sets @authenticated_user if the user provides valid
credentials. May be used to deny access or customise the view
def authenticate
@authenticated_user = nil
authenticate_with_http_basic do |user, pass|
@authenticated_user = User.authenticate(user, pass)
end
return true
end
#Filter for actions that require authentication. Unless client
authenticated
as some user, takes over the request and sends a response code of
def must_authenticate
if @authenticated_user && (@user_is_viewing_themselves != false)
return true
else
request_http_basic_authentication
return false
end
end
I get a NOMETHODERROR
undefined method `request_http_basic_authentication’ for
#OrdersController:0x478cc5c
when i tried this url
http://localhost:3001/v1/users/permalink_for_user_1/orders
if i remove the filter , etc i can use this link which is of course
bad cause i also can see teh data when i am not the authenticated
user.
Please help.
Thank you
