In other words, Devise expects you to implement +find_for_github_oauth+ method in your model and will act accordingly depending on what the method returns. This method will receive two arguments: the first is an +access_token+ object from OAuth2 library (http://github.com/intridea/oauth2) and the second is the signed in resource which we will ignore for this while.

In other words, Devise does all the work for you but it expects you to implement +find_for_github_oauth+ method in your model that will receive two arguments: the first is an +access_token+ object from OAuth2 library (http://github.com/intridea/oauth2) and the second is the signed in resource which we will ignore for this while. Depending on what this method returns, Devise act in a different way as seen above.

Our method above has two branches and both of them returns a persisted user.

However, this workflow assumes that all information retrieved from Github is enough for us to create an user and this may not be true for all providers. That said, Devise allows +find_for_github_oauth+ to have different outcomes. For instance, if it returns a record which was not persisted (usually a new record with errors), it will render the sign up views from the registrations controller and show all error messages. Finally, if you decide to return nil from +find_for_github_oauth+, Devise will consider that you decided you skip the authentication and will redirect to +after_oauth_skipped_path_for+ (defaults to the sign in page) with the skipped flash message.

Our basic implementation assumes that all information retrieved from Github is enough for us to create an user, however this may not be true for all providers. That said, Devise allows +find_for_github_oauth+ to have different outcomes. For instance, if it returns a record which was not persisted (usually a new record with errors), it will render the sign up views from the registrations controller and show all error messages. On the other hand, if you decide to return nil from +find_for_github_oauth+, Devise will consider that you decided to skip the authentication and will redirect to +after_oauth_skipped_path_for+ (defaults to the sign in page) with the skipped flash message.
|
||||
|
||||
All these methods +after_oauth_skipped_path_for+, +render_for_oauth+ and so on can be customized and overwritten in your application by inheriting from Devise::OauthCallbacksController as we have seen above in the "Configuring controllers" section.
|
||||
|
||||
For last but not least, Devise also supports linking accounts. The setup discussed above only uses Github for sign up and assumes that after the user signs up, there will not have any interaction with Github at all. However, this is not true for some applications.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need to interact with Github after sign up, the first step is to create a +github_token+ in the database and store it in the +find_for_github_oauth+ method above for further requests to their API. Next, you may also want to allow an already signed in user to link his account to a Github account without a need to sign up again. This is where the +signed_in_resource+ we discussed earlier takes place. If +find_for_github_oauth+ receives a signed in resource as parameter, you can link the github account to it like below:

After the token is stored, you can create another access token object to do get/post/put/delete requests like this:

Since the access token is stored as string, you can create another access token object to do get/post/put/delete requests like this:

def oauth_github_token
|

@oauth_github_token ||= self.class.oauth_access_token(:github, github_token)
|

end

|
||||
Or use a composition pattern through ActiveRecord's composed_of.
|
||||
|
||||
For github, the access token never expires. For facebook, you need to ask for offline access to get a token that won't expire. However, some providers like 37 Signals may expire the token and you need to store both access_token and refresh token in your database. This mechanism is not yet supported by Devise by default and you should check OAuth2 documentation for more information.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, notice in cases a resource is returned by +find_for_github_oauth+ but is not persisted, we store the access token in the session before rendering the registrations form. This allows you to recover your token later by overwriting +new_with_session+ class method in your model:
