I have recently started developing REST APIs with rails 5. I am trying to do User crude actions through API calls. I have set up a basic devise for users.
In my routes I have this:
Rails.application.routes.draw do
devise_for :users, :controllers => {sessions: 'sessions', registrations: 'registrations'}
end
I created two separate controllers sessions_controller and registrations_controller to override devise methods and make it accept JSON format.
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
respond_to :json
end
and
class SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController
respond_to :json
end
I am trying to register a user passing in the following data:
{
user: {
email: me@gmail.com,
password: password,
password_confirmation: password
}
}
I get a status 200. but in my rails server I'm getting the following error:
Started POST "/users" for 23.233.9.94 at 2016-12-22 08:22:11 +0000
Processing by RegistrationsController#create as */*
Parameters: {"Payload: { \r\n user: {\r\n email: me@gmail.com,\r\n password: password,\r\n password_confirmation: password\r\n }\r\n}"=>"[FILTERED]"}
(0.2ms) begin transaction
(0.1ms) rollback transaction
Completed 200 OK in 5ms (Views: 0.2ms | ActiveRecord: 0.3ms)
So I basically have 2 questions. How do I format the JSON so that my devise controllers recognize it and save it to the database. And my second question is how do I pass in a CSRF token. A little example would really help me out here. Thanks in advance.
