JTRailsTokenizable

JTRailsTokenizable generates tokens for ActiveRecord models in Ruby On Rails.

JTRailsTokenizable is distributed as a gem, which is how it should be used in your app.

Include the gem in your Gemfile:

gem 'jt-rails-tokenizable', '~> 1.0'

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
	tokenize :my_token_field
	tokenize :another_token_field, size: 20, validations: false
	tokenize :another_token_field, size: 20, only_digits: true
	...
end

You can change the size of the token (32 by default, which means 64 caracters) and disable the presence and uniqueness validations. The generation of token is using SecureRandom.hex or SecureRandom.random_number methods.

A new unique token is generated at the creation of the model. You can generate a new token with:

my_instance.generate_new_token(:my_token_field)
my_instance.save

# or directly

my_instance.generate_new_token!(:my_token_field)
