In my Rails (5.1) application I'm using devise for authentication and ActionCable.
My ActionCable connection looks like:
module ApplicationCable
class Connection < ActionCable::Connection::Base
identified_by :current_user
def connect
puts 'current_user:', current_user.inspect
self.current_user = find_verified_user
logger.add_tags 'ActionCable', current_user.id
end
def disconnect
# ...
end
protected
def find_verified_user
verified_user = env['warden'].user
return verified_user if verified_user
reject_unauthorized_connection
end
end
end
Now I want to test it using action-cable-testing
gem:
require 'rails_helper'
RSpec.describe ApplicationCable::Connection, type: :channel do
let(:user) { create(:user) }
before do
stub_connection(current_user: user)
end
it 'successfully connects' do
expect { connect '/cable' }.to_not raise_error
end
end
But got error:
ApplicationCable::Connection
current_user:
nil
successfully connects (FAILED - 1)
Failures:
1) ApplicationCable::Connection successfully connects
Failure/Error: expect { connect '/cable' }.to_not raise_error
expected no Exception, got #<NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass> with backtrace:
# ./app/channels/application_cable/connection.rb:19:in `find_verified_user'
# ./app/channels/application_cable/connection.rb:8:in `connect'

# ./spec/channels/user_channel_spec.rb:11:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>'
So I have two questions:
Whycurrent_user
isnil
?- How do I authenticate user?
