Question

I have two kinds of users: Admin and Worker.

each user has role_ids: if user.role_ids = [1], the user is Admin. if user.role_ids = [2], the user is Worker.

After the sign_up/sign_in, I want to redirect him by his role_ids:

if his kind is Admin, redirect him to: localhost:3000/tasksadmins.

if his kind is Worker, redirect him to: localhost:3000/workers.

this is my routes.rb:

devise_for :users do get '/users/sign_out' => 'devise/sessions#destroy' end

resources :tasksadmins

resources :workers

root to: "workers#index"

I think I have to do something like:

if current_user.role_ids == [2]
   root to: "workers#index"
else
   root to: "tasksadmins#index"
end

but current_user is not defined in the routes.

Any help appreciated!

You can override Devise’s RegistrationsController and modify the method after_sign_in_path_for according to your needs:

def after_sign_in_path_for(resource_or_scope)
  if resource_or_scope.is_a?(User)
    return admins_path if resource_or_scope.admin?
    workers_path
  else
    super
  end
end

Hope this helps!
