Watchtower
Setup
Install the plugin:
script/plugin install git://github.com/joshuaclayton/watchtower.gitMove the assets (requires rsync):
cd vendor && rake watchtower:syncSet up ApplicationController
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base include Watchtower::ApplicationControllerBase force_public_request_handling! # use this to force local development to rescue actions like a production server- etc…
end
If you want to secure the data, you might want to set up an initializer:
WatchtowerController.class_eval do before_filter :check_credentials private def check_credentials- call login_required (from your auth system or whatever) unless viewing a specific exception by key
login_required unless find_by_key?
end
end
