Module: Authlogic::ActsAsAuthentic::LoggedInStatus
- Defined in:
- lib/authlogic/acts_as_authentic/logged_in_status.rb
Overview
Since web applications are stateless there is not sure fire way to tell if a user is logged in or not, from the database perspective. The best way to do this is to provide a “timeout” based on inactivity. So if that user is inactive for a certain amount of time we assume they are logged out. That’s what this module is all about.
