Hi all,

We are on the story #1767, lock user out for a set number of minutes after a set number of failed log in attempts on the web. We want to use the gem devise. Gem devise needs the gem couchrest_model, which requrie the couchrest>(1.0.0). The story update couchrest from 0.3.4 is blocked by story#1338. So we are blocked. Any suggestions? 

Thank you.
   
Best Regards

Hi,

Devise and couchrest_model have good capabilities. Devise handles a lot of authentication capabilities very easily, like email reminders, API tokens, etc. So in the long run they are definitely good for RapidFTR.

But Devise latest version (2.x, 3.x) depends on Rails > 3.1 (but we use Rails 3.0). Similarly, CouchREST 1.0.0 has memory issues in RapidFTR. And our User model needs to be changed quite a bit to fit Devise. So I think a lot of things need to be done in order for us to start using Devise, and I don't think its viable to do all this in a short time.

So maybe for this story, for now we could write our own code, and later once the Rails/Ruby/CouchREST upgrades are completed - we could think of integrating Devise? Any thoughts?

Hi:
  Thank you for your advice. We also thought that way before, and we will write our own code to implement it temporarily.
