Multiple database users On a Rails 3 app

Question

i want to know how do i set an http log in form to send that user and password to the database.yml file, so with that user and password, log into the database.

This because i have multiple database users with different privileges.

thanks for any help you reply to me.

Database is Postgresql (if it matters, dont think so but i bet maybe someone will ask)

Answer 1

In case anyone is looking for an answer to this question.

Although it is only an overview see tip 21 from this presentation from James Edward Gray . It walks through, at a high level, an approach to creating and using a different database for each user. It's a long presentation, this tip is about a third of the way through.

It may be enough to point you in the right direction.
