How to use devise with Adminitrate?
Great tuts, please how can i use this with devise? when i run rails generate administrate:install, it generate error... says admin is not a class, already have a devise called admin, also have a view admin, please how can i manage this... want admin to authenticate before using login. Please how can this be achieve
Great question. If you want to use the existing Admin model from devise, all you need to do is add before_action :authenticate_user! to your admin controllers to force the admin user to be logged in. That should be it!
Thanks @chris for quick response, appreciated. Fully understand your message but the challenge here is that i've generated two devise 'User' & 'Admin', generating 'administrate:install' split error...
λ rails generate administrate:install
DL is deprecated, please use Fiddle
create app/controllers/admin/application_controller.rb
route namespace :admin do
DashboardManifest::DASHBOARDS.each do |dashboard_resource|
resources dashboard_resource
end
root controller: DashboardManifest::ROOT_DASHBOARD, action: :index
end

Please what's the solution?
What is the contents of your app/models/admin.rb file? It sounds like the Admin class isn't defined in there for some reason.
Thanks @chris, below are the contents contained in admin.rb
class Admin < ActiveRecord::Base
# Include default devise modules. Others available are:
# :confirmable, :lockable, :timeoutable and :omniauthable
devise :database_authenticatable, :recoverable,
:rememberable, :trackable, :validatable
end
Thanks
That definitely looks right. Huh. I'm not sure what is causing that.
One thing you could try is removing the Admin class and using AdminUser as the name instead to see if that does the trick.
Thanks @chris, i found the solution here ==> https://github.com/thoughtbot/administrate/issues/225
