I’m looking to hook into devise after login / after session create. How would I go about doing this?
Basically I want to set a users location every time they login, and to do that I need an after login hook of sorts.

Devise updates the value of the
user.current_sign_in_attimestamp on successful login. So, you could simply add abefore_savefilter to your User model. In that filter, check to see if the value of this field has changed, and if it has, set the users location.BTW – I’m not sure what you mean by “location” – if you mean IP address, Devise already stores that for you.
