I have data, :current_user, in my Application Controller:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base helper_method :current_user private def current_associate return @current_associate if defined?(@current_associate) @current_associate = current_associate_session && current_associate_session.record end end
, so it is inherited by the controllers that inherit ApplicationController
I have a module, which is 'required' by several controllers who inherit from ApplicationController. One of controllers is descended from Application Controller -- another is not (it is descended from RuportController). The latter needs to access :current_user.
What is the best way to accomplish this? (I have tried setting :current_user in the module, so that the controller that is derived from RuportController might be able to call the module to obtain it, with no luck).
Ultimately, I need to get :current_user into the controller derived from RuportController -- but how?
Thanks, R.Vince
