Module: Devise::Models::Rememberable

Extended by:
ActiveSupport::Concern
Defined in:
lib/devise/models/rememberable.rb

Overview

Rememberable manages generating and clearing token for remember the user from a saved cookie. Rememberable also has utility methods for dealing with serializing the user into the cookie and back from the cookie, trying to lookup the record based on the saved information. You probably wouldn’t use rememberable methods directly, they are used mostly internally for handling the remember token.

Options

Rememberable adds the following options in devise_for:

* +remember_for+: the time you want the user will be remembered without
  asking for credentials. After this time the user will be blocked and
  will have to enter his credentials again. This configuration is also
  used to calculate the expires time for the cookie created to remember
  the user. By default remember_for is 2.weeks.

* +extend_remember_period+: if true, extends the user's remember period
  when remembered via cookie. False by default.

* +rememberable_options+: configuration options passed to the created cookie.

Examples

User.find(1).remember_me!  # regenerating the token
User.find(1).forget_me!    # clearing the token

# generating info to put into cookies
User.serialize_into_cookie(user)

# lookup the user based on the incoming cookie information
User.serialize_from_cookie(cookie_string)
