Social Network Integration

Right now we have only facebook and the way is implement is not to scalable. It's better create a association between user and strategies where you can save more than one. Something like this

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :strategies
end

class Strategy
  # provider:string
  # uid:string
  # name: string
  # token:string
  # extra_data:json
  # ...

  belongs_to :user
end

This way is very flexible and you can add more strategies easier.

Would love to do this... Much better solution. Once I get some free time I'll add it.

@eriknomitch I will love it :smile:. This is one of the most important feature in 2014. Even we can try to add it into devise somehow. Devise let you use omniauth but really is pretty poor the integration.

Please make a gem with the integration between omniauth and devise.

@yordis I've been 100% on the Prelang Active prototype. :( I'm really deep into it so it's hard to switch to the builder, but I'll keep looking for free time.

Edit: Trust me, Prelang Active will be worth it! And I need to get the prototype done soon.
