I'm working on integrating Clearance with Omniauth and I'm struggling
trying to figure out how to sign a user in, after (s)he has signed in via
Omniauth.

I've tried using sign_in function and passing an instance of the user, but
after I redirect_to root_path current_user is not set.

I've tried setting the current user directly, but that's not helping either.

Looking through the code, I see a sign_in method, but I'm not sure how to
get access to the sessions controller to call it.  The test helpers refer
to @controller instance, but which controller?

What's the correct way of integrating Clearance with Omniauth?  Is there a
tutorial/doc on how to do this?

Thank you,

Misha

Hi Misha,

Can you share more of your code? Maybe using http://gist.github.com?

Clearance should be able to play nicely with Omniauth. Read this file
to get a sense of how Clearance interacts with sessions:

Hi Dan,

I was following the example from Ryan Bates railscast for Omniauth, parts 1
and 2.  He uses Devise for his example and I was adapting it to Clearance.

In his example, he creates an Authorizations controller.  When the provider
calls the callback URL, there's a route to catch it and send it to the
create action in Authorizations controller.

The create action does a bunch of checks about whether or not the user
needs to be registered and at the end, signs him/her in.

Devise uses sign_in_and_redirect call and in Clearance I found sign_in
function which I assumed does the same as what Devise implements, minus the
redirect.

You can see my implementation of the create action here
https://gist.github.com/1955811

After the redirect current_user is empty.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you

Misha,

Here is what I did the last time I used Clearance with Omniauth (Facebook only):

https://gist.github.com/88558b3ae6c5bc41cdae

Does that help?

Dan
