Devise sessions for multiple users

Question

I am building an app with two pretty separate models both using devise for auth. Once you sign in as a house, then each individual in the house can sign in as a resident of that house. Everything is working fine except that when i log out of a resident session using

destroy_resident_session

the only problem with this is that it also kills the house session since it calls

Devise::SessionsController#destroy

I have tried to create a custom session for residents, here is my code below:

class SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController

  # DELETE /resource/sign_out
  def destroy
    redirect_path = after_sign_out_path_for(resource_name)
    signed_out = sign_out(resident)
    set_flash_message :notice, :signed_out if signed_out && is_navigational_format?

    # We actually need to hardcode this as Rails default responder doesn't
    # support returning empty response on GET request
    respond_to do |format|
      format.all { head :no_content }
      format.any(*navigational_formats) { redirect_to redirect_path }
    end
  end
end

This gives an error:

undefined local variable or method `resident'

I may be misunderstanding the method logic but it seems like i want to change the following line in the devise sessions controller:

signed_out = (Devise.sign_out_all_scopes ? sign_out : sign_out(resource_name))

Since I do not want to sign out of all scopes, only the resident scope.

Solved

All I had to do was set

 config.sign_out_all_scopes = false

in

config/devise.rb

And also, had to remember to restart my server :)

Answer 1

This should be marked as the answer. You did not post it but I had the same issue and that was the solution so I am posting it for the community

config/devise.rb

 config.sign_out_all_scopes = false
