I’m keeping this here as a reminder to myself:

3. 3 to 6 months of expenses in savings

Here’s an e-mail I sent to the Devise mailing list:

Hi,

I patterned my app to this: https://github.com/RailsApps/rails3-subdomains but using AR instead of Mongoid.
I’m trying to extend it such that a user can log in inside a subdomain and at the main area and different classes will handle sessions/registrations in each context.

Here’s my routes:

  constraints(Subdomain) do
    scope :module => "brand" do
      devise_for :subscribers, :class_name => "User", :module => "brand/devise"
      match "/dashboard" => "subscribers#dashboard"
      match '/' => 'home#index'
    end
  end

  devise_for :subscribers, :class_name => "User"

If I remove the 2nd devise_for, it works in the subdomains but I can’t log in the main domain.

Edit: I partially solved my problem while typing out this mail. Will send it still just in case it helps someone.

Partially, in the sense that I can log in at the subdomain and in the main domain but only Brand::Devise controllers handle both cases.

Changing the routes to this fixed it:

  constraints(Subdomain) do
    scope :module => "brand" do
      match "/dashboard" => "subscribers#dashboard"
      match '/' => 'home#index'
    end
  end

  devise_for :subscribers, :class_name => "User", :module => "brand/devise"

Apparently, you can only specify the same resource (:subscribers in this case) only once and the latest call to devise_for will be the one that will apply, regardless if it is within a constraint or not. My motivations in maintaining the resource is to keep my controllers/views dry.

I’m guessing that putting in different resource names will work. It might become confusing though.

2 days of wracking my brains on this and I only had to move a line out of a block. The joys of programming. Haha.
