How to skip_before_filter in RailsAdmin

[Daniel Moore]

I have a general authentication filter for my app (a simple json api for mobile) that is defined in ApplicationController. I want to ignore it when inside Rails Admin.

How do I configure Rails Admin to skip the before filter?

Thanks!

Subclass ApplicationController with FrontEndController and put your filter there. Then use the latter to subclass your own controllers.

Otherwise you can check the parents of the controller to remove the behavior when in RailsAdmin.

There is  a method for that: https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin/blob/master/app/controllers/rails_admin/application_controller.rb#L80
