    <p>So, I'm trying to use tokens with Devise (version 1.0.3 with Rails 2.3.8) to let a user log in, but I'm not entirely sure where to begin.</p> <p><a href="http://zyphdesignco.com/blog/simple-auth-token-example-with-devise" rel="noreferrer">http://zyphdesignco.com/blog/simple-auth-token-example-with-devise</a></p> <p>The above tutorial helped me turn on the token functionality, and showed how to generate (or delete) tokens...but the whole POINT of tokens is to use them to authorize a user, correct?</p> <p>When I look at a user in the console, I can say user.authentication_token, and get something back like: "Qm1ne93n_XkgmQTvxDmm", which is all well and good...but where do I go from there?</p> <p>I tried hitting the sign_in root using the following command line command:</p> <blockquote> <p>curl -d "authentication_token=Qm1ne93n_XkgmQTvxDmm" localhost:3000/users/sign_in</p> </blockquote> <p>And definitely didn't get a successful log in. </p> <p>In the sessions controller, I see that they call:</p> <blockquote> <p>authenticate(resource_name)</p> </blockquote> <p>Which I'm ASSUMING is somewhere in the module:</p> <blockquote> <p>include Devise::Controllers::InternalHelpers</p> </blockquote> <p>which gets included, but I don't know where to look for that (it's definitely not in the source's controller folder). If I could look at how authenticate works, I could see if it even LOOKS at tokens...</p> <p>DOES Devise let you actually log in with tokens, or does it just have a framework for generating them? If it does let you log in with them...HOW do you do this? Can you not use curl (i.e. does it have to be in a browser? If so, I'd hafta roll my own solution, I NEED non-browser support.). If it doesn't, how do I roll my own?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
