Question

I want to write a function which sets cookie when user is not authenticated. So after authenticate_user! if user is not authenticated the cookie is set. Can this be done in devise.
I tried doing it by customizing authenticate_user! function, but can’t find anything.

Thanks

Are you using before_filter to call authenticate_user!? Can’t you just do:

before_filter do
  authenticate_user!
  your_cookie_method if current_user.nil?
end
