rails4-devise-cancan-bootstrap

This is a rails v4.0.2 app and can be used as a starter-kit for your own app.

Points to ponder:

Devise + Cancan for authorization and role based authentication.
Bootstrap-3 integration
Dynamic role creation functionality.
HAML used as templating engine.

Installation

In the command line run:

bundle
rake db:setup

This will install the gems specified in Gemfile and create the tables in the database (please change the config/database.yml to set your configuration)

Devise + Cancan

This deadly combo is used for user authorization and authentication.

Currently only admin users are given all the access. You can add up more access definitions in app/models/ability.rb

Default user is created. See config/application.yml for more settings.

Dynamic Role Creation

You can add as many roles you want and define its access scopes in Ability class. Currently only admin users are given the access of role creation.

TODO

Add the test coverage.
