Question

The context :

I have a rails engine (gem) that uses omniauth inside it to authenticate the users for the entire engine. Then, that engine is used by a regular rails application.

I am using Rails 3.1.3 and Ruby 1.9.2.

The question :

In my application that uses my engine (which in turn uses omniauth), where should the omniauth.rb file be located?

• In the engine’s initializers folder?
• In the regular application initializers folder?
• In some kind of engine folder in my regular application, such as initializers/engine_name?

Answer 1

you should place it in:

lib/oauth/omniauth.rb
