I’m creating a Rails app using Devise for user management (Rails 3.0.10, Devise 1.4.2).

I’m creating a Rails app using Devise for user management (Rails 3.0.10, Devise 1.4.2). I’ve got the basics going – signup, login / logout – but I can’t seem to find any facility (or even documentation surrounding) user management.

In other Rails apps I’ve created, I’ve had a UsersController with an index method that allows an administrator to list all the users of a system, & to subsequently modify them through edit and update actions on the same controller.

I can’t see an obvious way of doing this with Devise. I’ve used the Rake tasks that come with Devise to generate editable views, which is great, but I can’t figure out how to do the equivalent with the Controller.

I fear I’m missing something fundamental here. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

    Devise doesn’t come with any sort of Admin interface. If you are the only administrator and don’t mind a little crudeness – there is always the console and/or scaffolding.

    There are also a lot of good gems that make setting up admin interfaces a cinch: Active Admin, Rails Admin and I’m sure there are a bunch more out there.
