Must Activate Authlogic::Session::Base.controller

[drmwndr]

I've created a base authentication system using Instructions of Authlogic ReadMe GitHub Repository. Now when i call UserSessions.new the following message is showed: " Authlogic::Session::Activation::NotActivatedError (You must activate the Authlogic::Session::Base.controller with a controller object before creating objects) "

I've readed some topics here about it, but none of the proposed solutions worked. Can someone help?

Rails 5.2.2, ruby 2.6.1

Hi @drmwndr , are you initializing this in a Rails app, the Rails console, or Rails tests?

Ok, I usually have this [fix] in my ~/.irbrc:

controller.request = ActionController::TestRequest.new
Authlogic::Session::Base.controller = Authlogic::ControllerAdapters::RailsAdapter.new(controller)

Sidenote: wondering if there's a reason we don't always just do this in a Railtie since everyone runs into this problem.

If your app was set up with Rails 5 API (using rails new foo --api), you may need to update ApplicationController.

ApplicationController < ActionController::API should be updated to ApplicationController < ActionController::Base

ActionController::Base has a few modules that (I imagine) AuthLogic requires that ActionController::API lacks. I went through as many combinations as I could but couldn't find the correct set of modules to include.

Modules in ActionController::Base https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/actionpack/lib/action_controller/base.rb

Modules in ActionController::API https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/actionpack/lib/action_controller/api.rb
