Question

in my ApplicationController I want to do something like this:

  def layout_by_resource
    if user_signed_in? || request.controller == 'ChatRoom'
      "application"
    else
      "unauthorized"
    end
   end

Is the request.controller == ‘ChatRoom’ part possible? I want to serve a specific layout based on the controller being called by the user.

Thanks

Of course, you could simply replace request.controller == 'ChatRoom' with params[:controller] == 'ChatRoom'

Alternative solution:

request.filtered_parameters["controller"] == 'ChatRoom'
