Normally if you're using devise, you can do current_user = env['warden'].user
in the connection.rb file , but when you create your own authentication from scratch...what would it be?
channels/application_cable/connection.rb
module ApplicationCable
class Connection < ActionCable::Connection::Base
identified_by :current_user
def connect
self.current_user = find_verified_user
logger.add_tags "ActionCable", "User #{current_user.id}"
end
protected
def find_verified_user
if current_user = env['warden'].user
current_user
else
reject_unauthorized_connection
end
end
end
end
