Last active March 6, 2019 15:15
(Update: I've packaged this gist into a gem to make its use easier, see: https://github.com/gonzalo-bulnes/simple_token_authentication.) Add token authentication to your Rails API. Follows the José Valim recomendations and is fully compatible with Devise (tokens are created the first time users sign in). See https://gist.github.com/josevalim/fb7…
# db/migrate/XXXXXXXXXXXXX_add_authentication_token_to_users.rb
class AddAuthenticationTokenToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
add_column :users, :authentication_token, :string
add_index :users, :authentication_token, :unique => true
end
end
