Just write in your controllers (ApplicationController if filtering full application)

before_filter DRCClient.filter(*options)

# TODO a filter that considers both drc_logged_in? and drc_user_allowed?

:gateway - if set true, DRC-connection won’t be mandatory.

:enable_single_sign_out - if set true, when logged out from DRC you’ll be logout from the application as well. REQUIRES: config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store in environment and disabling forgery_protection

:user_model - name of your user model, defaults to User

:drc_user_column - name of the column of your user model that identifies its DRC user, defaults to drc_user

:local_user_id_column - if your user model doesn’t have an :id attribute set it’s id_attribute_name here.

:require_local_user - set this true if you users need a local_user on top of a DRC user. (if true set :user_model) DRCClient.filter WON’T CHECK THIS, USER drc_user_allowed?

:require_access_level - not implemented yet - define access level needed to access your app. (:none, :student, :teacher, :director)

logout - destroys session and logs user out of DRCServer
