Yielding Resource to Overriding Controller

[bezreyhan]

I'm trying to extend the create action for the Sessions Controller

When I do this:

class SessionsController < DeviseTokenAuth::SessionsController

  def create
    super do |resource|
      puts resource
    end
  end
end

resource == nil

however @resource does return the resource.

Is this the expected behavior?

Also, I was wondering how I can get access to the token that will be returned to the user? I was able to access it via @token.

I literally just asked the same question! See #549
I've also had issues with not being able to pass a super block to a DeviseTokenAuth controller, doesn't seem to do anything, and I'm pretty sure I'm inheriting it correctly.

We have been able to figure this out with a lot of experimentation. @resouce does return nil for us too, but we did find the access-token and all the other information returned from the omniauth provider, located in request.env['omniauth.auth'], located in the redirect_callbacks action of the OmniAuthCallbacks controller. We also needed to set up

mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth', controllers: { omniauth_callbacks: 'registrations'}

in routes.rb, and create the custom controller which we named RegistrationsController.
So our block looked like this:
def redirect_callbacks
super
puts "REDIRECT:"
puts request.env['omniauth.params']
puts "AUTH INFO"
puts request.env['omniauth.auth'].credentials['token']
puts "REDIRECT END"
# create the user_strava_key and save it.
@strava_token = request.env['omniauth.auth'].credentials['token']
UserStravaKey.create(key_secret: @strava_token)

I hope this helps, and also thanks to @JonathanWexler for helping to figure this out.

@richardmable thanks for documenting your findings @resource in not nil for me. Rather resourcem which should be returned by the block, is nil.

I am also able to get access to the token via @token

Sounds like we have a proposed solution here? Closing for now.
