Rails plugin for using the RubyCAS-Client as a controller filter.
This uses a Railtie, so will only work with Rails 3.0 and up.
Add the following to your Gemfile:
gem 'rubycas-client-rails'
Then run bundler in your Rails app's root directory:
bundle install
Once the necessary gems have been installed, in your application.rb add:
config.rubycas.cas_base_url = 'https://cas.example.com/'
Finally, to enable the CAS filter for a controller:
class MyController < ApplicationController
before_filter RubyCAS::Filter
If you want authentication to be optional, use the GatewayFilter instead:
before_filter RubyCAS::GatewayFilter
Many other configuration options are available. For example you can instruct the client to log its actions to the default Rails logger using:
config.rubycas.logger = Rails.logger
See the (outdated) documentation at http://rubycas-client.rubyforge.org/ for a full list of config options.
