-# Usage TL;DR
-The following routes are available for use by your client. These routes live relative to the path at which this engine is mounted (`auth` by default). These routes correspond to the defaults used by the [ng-token-auth](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth) module for [AngularJS](https://angularjs.org/) and the [jToker](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/j-toker) plugin for [jQuery](https://jquery.com/).
-| path | method | purpose |
-|:-----|:-------|:--------|
-| /    | POST   | Email registration. Requires **`email`**, **`password`**, **`password_confirmation`**, and **`confirm_success_url`** params (this last one can be omitted if you have set `config.default_confirm_success_url` in `config/initializers/devise_token_auth.rb`). A verification email will be sent to the email address provided. Upon clicking the link in the confirmation email, the API will redirect to the URL specified in **`confirm_success_url`**. Accepted params can be customized using the [`devise_parameter_sanitizer`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#strong-parameters) system. |
-| / | DELETE | Account deletion. This route will destroy users identified by their **`uid`**, **`access-token`** and **`client`** headers. |
-| / | PUT | Account updates. This route will update an existing user's account settings. The default accepted params are **`password`** and **`password_confirmation`**, but this can be customized using the [`devise_parameter_sanitizer`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#strong-parameters) system. If **`config.check_current_password_before_update`** is set to `:attributes` the **`current_password`** param is checked before any update, if it is set to `:password` the **`current_password`** param is checked only if the request updates user password. |
-| /sign_in | POST | Email authentication. Requires **`email`** and **`password`** as params. This route will return a JSON representation of the `User` model on successful login along with the `access-token` and `client` in the header of the response. |
-| /sign_out | DELETE | Use this route to end the user's current session. This route will invalidate the user's authentication token. You must pass in **`uid`**, **`client`**, and **`access-token`** in the request headers. |
-| /:provider | GET | Set this route as the destination for client authentication. Ideally this will happen in an external window or popup. [Read more](#omniauth-authentication). |
-| /:provider/callback | GET/POST | Destination for the oauth2 provider's callback uri. `postMessage` events containing the authenticated user's data will be sent back to the main client window from this page. [Read more](#omniauth-authentication). |
-| /validate_token | GET | Use this route to validate tokens on return visits to the client. Requires **`uid`**, **`client`**, and **`access-token`** as params. These values should correspond to the columns in your `User` table of the same names. |
-| /password | POST | Use this route to send a password reset confirmation email to users that registered by email. Accepts **`email`** and **`redirect_url`** as params. The user matching the `email` param will be sent instructions on how to reset their password. `redirect_url` is the url to which the user will be redirected after visiting the link contained in the email. |
-| /password | PUT | Use this route to change users' passwords. Requires **`password`** and **`password_confirmation`** as params. This route is only valid for users that registered by email (OAuth2 users will receive an error). It also checks **`current_password`** if **`config.check_current_password_before_update`** is not set `false` (disabled by default). |
-| /password/edit | GET | Verify user by password reset token. This route is the destination URL for password reset confirmation. This route must contain **`reset_password_token`** and **`redirect_url`** params. These values will be set automatically by the confirmation email that is generated by the password reset request. |

-# Configuration cont.
-## Initializer settings
-The following settings are available for configuration in `config/initializers/devise_token_auth.rb`:
-| Name | Default | Description|
-|---|---|---|
-| **`change_headers_on_each_request`** | `true` | By default the access-token header will change after each request. The client is responsible for keeping track of the changing tokens. Both [ng-token-auth](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth) and [jToker](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/j-toker) do this out of the box. While this implementation is more secure, it can be difficult to manage. Set this to false to prevent the `access-token` header from changing after each request. [Read more](#about-token-management). |
-| **`token_lifespan`** | `2.weeks` | Set the length of your tokens' lifespans. Users will need to re-authenticate after this duration of time has passed since their last login. |
-| **`batch_request_buffer_throttle`** | `5.seconds` | Sometimes it's necessary to make several requests to the API at the same time. In this case, each request in the batch will need to share the same auth token. This setting determines how far apart the requests can be while still using the same auth token. [Read more](#about-batch-requests). |
-| **`omniauth_prefix`** | `"/omniauth"` | This route will be the prefix for all oauth2 redirect callbacks. For example, using the default '/omniauth' setting, the github oauth2 provider will redirect successful authentications to '/omniauth/github/callback'. [Read more](#omniauth-provider-settings). |
-| **`default_confirm_success_url`** | `nil` | By default this value is expected to be sent by the client so that the API knows where to redirect users after successful email confirmation. If this param is set, the API will redirect to this value when no value is provided by the client. |
-| **`default_password_reset_url`** | `nil` | By default this value is expected to be sent by the client so that the API knows where to redirect users after successful password resets. If this param is set, the API will redirect to this value when no value is provided by the client. |
-| **`redirect_whitelist`** | `nil` | As an added security measure, you can limit the URLs to which the API will redirect after email token validation (password reset, email confirmation, etc.). This value should be an array containing matches to the client URLs to be visited after validation. Wildcards are supported. |
-| **`enable_standard_devise_support`** | `false` | By default, only Bearer Token authentication is implemented out of the box. If, however, you wish to integrate with legacy Devise authentication, you can do so by enabling this flag. NOTE: This feature is highly experimental! |
-| **`remove_tokens_after_password_reset`** | `false` | By default, old tokens are not invalidated when password is changed. Enable this option if you want to make passwords updates to logout other devices. |
-| **`default_callbacks`** | `true` | By default User model will include the `DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::UserOmniauthCallbacks` concern, which has `email`, `uid` validations & `uid` synchronization callbacks. |
-| **`bypass_sign_in`** | `true` | By default DeviseTokenAuth will not check user's `#active_for_authentication?` which includes confirmation check on each call (it will do it only on sign in). If you want it to be validated on each request (for example, to be able to deactivate logged in users on the fly), set it to false. |
-Additionally, you can configure other aspects of devise by manually creating the traditional devise.rb file at `config/initializers/devise.rb`. Here are some examples of what you can do in this file:
-~~~ruby
-Devise.setup do |config|
-  # The e-mail address that mail will appear to be sent from
-  # If absent, mail is sent from "please-change-me-at-config-initializers-devise@example.com"
-  config.mailer_sender = "support@myapp.com"
-  # If using rails-api, you may want to tell devise to not use ActionDispatch::Flash
-  # middleware b/c rails-api does not include it.
-  # See: http://stackoverflow.com/q/19600905/806956
-  config.navigational_formats = [:json]
-end
-~~~
-## OmniAuth authentication
-If you wish to use omniauth authentication, add all of your desired authentication provider gems to your `Gemfile`.
-**OmniAuth example using github, facebook, and google**:
-~~~ruby
-gem 'omniauth-github'
-gem 'omniauth-facebook'
-gem 'omniauth-google-oauth2'
-~~~
-Then run `bundle install`.
-[List of oauth2 providers](https://github.com/intridea/omniauth/wiki/List-of-Strategies)
-## OmniAuth provider settings
-In `config/initializers/omniauth.rb`, add the settings for each of your providers.
-These settings must be obtained from the providers themselves.
-**Example using github, facebook, and google**:
-~~~ruby
-# config/initializers/omniauth.rb
-Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
-  provider :github,        ENV['GITHUB_KEY'],   ENV['GITHUB_SECRET'],   scope: 'email,profile'
-  provider :facebook,      ENV['FACEBOOK_KEY'], ENV['FACEBOOK_SECRET']
-  provider :google_oauth2, ENV['GOOGLE_KEY'],   ENV['GOOGLE_SECRET']
-end
-~~~
-The above example assumes that your provider keys and secrets are stored in environmental variables. Use the [figaro](https://github.com/laserlemon/figaro) gem (or [dotenv](https://github.com/bkeepers/dotenv) or [secrets.yml](https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/v4.1.0/railties/lib/rails/generators/rails/app/templates/config/secrets.yml) or equivalent) to accomplish this.
-#### OmniAuth callback settings
-The "Callback URL" setting that you set with your provider must correspond to the [omniauth prefix](#initializer-settings) setting defined by this app. **This will be different than the omniauth route that is used by your client application**.
-For example, the demo app uses the default `omniauth_prefix` setting `/omniauth`, so the "Authorization callback URL" for github must be set to "http://devise-token-auth-demo.herokuapp.com**/omniauth**/github/callback".
-**Github example for the demo site**:
-![password reset flow](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth/raw/master/test/dummy/app/assets/images/omniauth-provider-settings.png)
-The url for github authentication will be different for the client. The client should visit the API at `/[MOUNT_PATH]/:provider` for omniauth authentication.
-For example, given that the app is mounted using the following settings:
-~~~ruby
-# config/routes.rb
-mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth'
-~~~
-The client configuration for github should look like this:
-**Angular.js setting for authenticating using github**:
-~~~javascript
-angular.module('myApp', ['ng-token-auth'])
-  .config(function($authProvider) {
-    $authProvider.configure({
-      apiUrl: 'http://api.example.com'
-      authProviderPaths: {
-        github: '/auth/github' // <-- note that this is different than what was set with github
-      }
-    });
-  });
-~~~
-**jToker settings for github should look like this:
-~~~javascript
-$.auth.configure({
-  apiUrl: 'http://api.example.com',
-  authProviderPaths: {
-    github: '/auth/github' // <-- note that this is different than what was set with github
-  }
-});
-~~~
-This incongruence is necessary to support multiple user classes and mounting points.
-#### Note for [pow](http://pow.cx/) and [xip.io](http://xip.io) users
-If you receive `redirect-uri-mismatch` errors from your provider when using pow or xip.io urls, set the following in your development config:
-~~~ruby
-# config/environments/development.rb
-# when using pow
-OmniAuth.config.full_host = "http://app-name.dev"
-# when using xip.io
-OmniAuth.config.full_host = "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.app-name.xip.io"
-~~~
-## Email authentication
-If you wish to use email authentication, you must configure your Rails application to send email. [Read here](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_mailer_basics.html) for more information.
-I recommend using [mailcatcher](http://mailcatcher.me/) for development.
-##### mailcatcher development example configuration:
-~~~ruby
-# config/environments/development.rb
-Rails.application.configure do
-  config.action_mailer.default_url_options = { :host => 'your-dev-host.dev' }
-  config.action_mailer.delivery_method = :smtp
-  config.action_mailer.smtp_settings = { :address => 'your-dev-host.dev', :port => 1025 }
-end
-~~~
-If you wish to send custom e-mails instead of using the default devise templates, you can [do that too](#email-template-overrides).
-## Customizing Devise Verbiage
-Devise Token Auth ships with intelligent default wording for everything you need. But that doesn't mean you can't make it more awesome. You can override the [devise defaults](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/config/locales/en.yml) by creating a YAML file at `config/locales/devise.en.yml` and assigning whatever custom values you want. For example, to customize the subject line of your devise e-mails, you could do this:
-~~~yaml
-en:
-  devise:
-    mailer:
-      confirmation_instructions:
-        subject: "Please confirm your e-mail address"
-      reset_password_instructions:
-        subject: "Reset password request"
-~~~
-## CORS
-If your API and client live on different domains, you will need to configure your Rails API to allow [cross origin requests](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing). The [rack-cors](https://github.com/cyu/rack-cors) gem can be used to accomplish this.
-The following **dangerous** example will allow cross domain requests from **any** domain. Make sure to whitelist only the needed domains.
-##### Example rack-cors configuration:
-~~~ruby
-# gemfile
-gem 'rack-cors', :require => 'rack/cors'
-# config/application.rb
-module YourApp
-  class Application < Rails::Application
-    config.middleware.use Rack::Cors do
-      allow do
-        origins '*'
-        resource '*',
-          :headers => :any,
-          :expose  => ['access-token', 'expiry', 'token-type', 'uid', 'client'],
-          :methods => [:get, :post, :options, :delete, :put]
-      end
-    end
-  end
-end
-~~~
-Make extra sure that the `Access-Control-Expose-Headers` includes `access-token`, `expiry`, `token-type`, `uid`, and `client` (as is set in the example above by the`:expose` param). If your client experiences erroneous 401 responses, this is likely the cause.
-CORS may not be possible with older browsers (IE8, IE9). I usually set up a proxy for those browsers. See the [ng-token-auth readme](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth) or the [jToker readme](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/j-toker) for more information.
-# Usage cont.
-## Mounting Routes
-The authentication routes must be mounted to your project. This gem includes a route helper for this purpose:
-**`mount_devise_token_auth_for`** - similar to `devise_for`, this method is used to append the routes necessary for user authentication. This method accepts the following arguments:
-| Argument | Type | Default | Description |
-|---|---|---|---|
-|`class_name`| string | 'User' | The name of the class to use for authentication. This class must include the [model concern described here](#model-concerns). |
-| `options` | object | {at: 'auth'} | The [routes to be used for authentication](#usage) will be prefixed by the path specified in the `at` param of this object. |
-**Example**:
-~~~ruby
-# config/routes.rb
-mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth'
-~~~
-Any model class can be used, but the class will need to include [`DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::User`](#model-concerns) for authentication to work properly.
-You can mount this engine to any route that you like. `/auth` is used by default to conform with the defaults of the [ng-token-auth](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth) module and the [jToker](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/j-toker) plugin.
-## Controller Methods
-### Concerns
-This gem includes a [Rails concern](http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Concern.html) called `DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::SetUserByToken`. Include this concern to provide access to [controller methods](#controller-methods) such as [`authenticate_user!`](#authenticate-user), [`user_signed_in?`](#user-signed-in), etc.
-The concern also runs an [after_action](http://guides.rubyonrails.org/action_controller_overview.html#filters) that changes the auth token after each request.
-It is recommended to include the concern in your base `ApplicationController` so that all children of that controller include the concern as well.
-##### Concern example:
-~~~ruby
-# app/controllers/application_controller.rb
-class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
-  include DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::SetUserByToken
-end
-~~~
-### Methods
-This gem provides access to all of the following [devise helpers](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#controller-filters-and-helpers):
-| Method | Description |
-|---|---|
-| **`before_action :authenticate_user!`** | Returns a 401 error unless a `User` is signed-in. |
-| **`current_user`** | Returns the currently signed-in `User`, or `nil` if unavailable. |
-| **`user_signed_in?`** | Returns `true` if a `User` is signed in, otherwise `false`. |
-| **`devise_token_auth_group`** | Operate on multiple user classes as a group. [Read more](#group-access) |
-Note that if the model that you're trying to access isn't called `User`, the helper method names will change. For example, if the user model is called `Admin`, the methods would look like this:
-* `before_action :authenticate_admin!`
-* `admin_signed_in?`
-* `current_admin`
-##### Example: limit access to authenticated users
-~~~ruby
-# app/controllers/test_controller.rb
-class TestController < ApplicationController
-  before_action :authenticate_user!
-  def members_only
-    render json: {
-      data: {
-        message: "Welcome #{current_user.name}",
-        user: current_user
-      }
-    }, status: 200
-  end
-end
-~~~
-### Token Header Format
-The authentication information should be included by the client in the headers of each request. The headers follow the [RFC 6750 Bearer Token](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750) format:
-##### Authentication headers example:
-~~~
-"access-token": "wwwww",
-"token-type":   "Bearer",
-"client":       "xxxxx",
-"expiry":       "yyyyy",
-"uid":          "zzzzz"
-~~~
-The authentication headers (each one is a seperate header) consists of the following params:
-| param | description |
-|---|---|
-| **`access-token`** | This serves as the user's password for each request. A hashed version of this value is stored in the database for later comparison. This value should be changed on each request. |
-| **`client`** | This enables the use of multiple simultaneous sessions on different clients. (For example, a user may want to be authenticated on both their phone and their laptop at the same time.) |
-| **`expiry`** | The date at which the current session will expire. This can be used by clients to invalidate expired tokens without the need for an API request. |
-| **`uid`** | A unique value that is used to identify the user. This is necessary because searching the DB for users by their access token will make the API susceptible to [timing attacks](http://codahale.com/a-lesson-in-timing-attacks/). |
+## [Docs](https://maicolben.gitbooks.io/devise-token-auth/content/docs/config/)
-The authentication headers required for each request will be available in the response from the previous request. If you are using the [ng-token-auth](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth) AngularJS module or the [jToker](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/j-toker) jQuery plugin, this functionality is already provided.

-  ~~~ruby
-  # create client id and token
-  client_id = SecureRandom.urlsafe_base64(nil, false)
-  token     = SecureRandom.urlsafe_base64(nil, false)

-  @resource.tokens[client_id] = {
-    token: BCrypt::Password.create(token),
-    expiry: (Time.now + @resource.token_lifespan).to_i
-  }
-  # generate auth headers for response

-## Using multiple models
-### View Live Multi-User Demos
-* [AngularJS](http://ng-token-auth-demo.herokuapp.com/multi-user)
-* [Angular2](https://angular2-token.herokuapp.com)
-* [React + jToker](http://j-toker-demo.herokuapp.com/#/alt-user)
-This gem supports the use of multiple user models. One possible use case is to authenticate visitors using a model called `User`, and to authenticate administrators with a model called `Admin`. Take the following steps to add another authentication model to your app:
-1. Run the install generator for the new model.
-  ~~~
-  rails g devise_token_auth:install Admin admin_auth
-  ~~~
-  This will create the `Admin` model and define the model's authentication routes with the base path `/admin_auth`.
-1. Define the routes to be used by the `Admin` user within a [`devise_scope`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise#configuring-routes).
-  **Example**:
-  ~~~ruby
-  Rails.application.routes.draw do
-    # when using multiple models, controllers will default to the first available
-    # devise mapping. routes for subsequent devise mappings will need to defined
-    # within a `devise_scope` block
-    # define :users as the first devise mapping:
-    mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth'
-    # define :admins as the second devise mapping. routes using this class will
-    # need to be defined within a devise_scope as shown below
-    mount_devise_token_auth_for "Admin", at: 'admin_auth'
-    # this route will authorize requests using the User class
-    get 'demo/members_only', to: 'demo#members_only'
-    # routes within this block will authorize requests using the Admin class
-    devise_scope :admin do
-      get 'demo/admins_only', to: 'demo#admins_only'
-    end
-  end
-  ~~~
-1. Configure any `Admin` restricted controllers. Controllers will now have access to the methods [described here](#methods):
-  * `before_action :authenticate_admin!`
-  * `current_admin`
-  * `admin_signed_in?`
-### Group access
-It is also possible to control access to multiple user types at the same time using groups. The following example shows how to limit controller access to both `User` and `Admin` users.
-##### Example: group authentication
-~~~ruby
-class DemoGroupController < ApplicationController
-  devise_token_auth_group :member, contains: [:user, :admin]
-  before_action :authenticate_member!
-  def members_only
-    render json: {
-      data: {
-        message: "Welcome #{current_member.name}",
-        user: current_member
-      }
-    }, status: 200
-  end
-end
-~~~
-In the above example, the following methods will be available (in addition to `current_user`, `current_admin`, etc.):
-  * `before_action: :authenticate_member!`
-  * `current_member`
-  * `member_signed_in?`
-## Excluding Modules
-By default, almost all of the Devise modules are included:
-* [`database_authenticatable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/database_authenticatable.rb)
-* [`registerable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/registerable.rb)
-* [`recoverable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/recoverable.rb)
-* [`trackable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/trackable.rb)
-* [`validatable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/validatable.rb)
-* [`confirmable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/confirmable.rb)
-* [`omniauthable`](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/blob/master/lib/devise/models/omniauthable.rb)
-You may not want all of these features enabled in your app. That's OK! You can mix and match to suit your own unique style.
-The following example shows how to disable email confirmation.
-##### Example: disable email confirmation
-Just list the devise modules that you want to include **before** including the `DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::User` model concern.
-~~~ruby
-# app/models/user.rb
-class User < ActiveRecord::Base
-  # notice this comes BEFORE the include statement below
-  # also notice that :confirmable is not included in this block
-  devise :database_authenticatable, :recoverable,
-         :trackable, :validatable, :registerable,
-         :omniauthable
-  # note that this include statement comes AFTER the devise block above
-  include DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::User
-end
-~~~
-Some features include routes that you may not want mounted to your app. The following example shows how to disable OAuth and its routes.
-##### Example: disable OAuth authentication
-First instruct the model not to include the `omniauthable` module.
-~~~ruby
-# app/models/user.rb
-class User < ActiveRecord::Base
-  # notice that :omniauthable is not included in this block
-  devise :database_authenticatable, :confirmable,
-         :recoverable, :trackable, :validatable,
-         :registerable
-  include DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::User
-end
-~~~
-Now tell the route helper to `skip` mounting the `omniauth_callbacks` controller:
-~~~ruby
-Rails.application.routes.draw do
-  # config/routes.rb
-  mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth', skip: [:omniauth_callbacks]
-end
-~~~
-## Custom Controller Overrides
-The built-in controllers can be overridden with your own custom controllers.
-For example, the default behavior of the [`validate_token`](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth/blob/8a33d25deaedb4809b219e557e82ec7ec61bf940/app/controllers/devise_token_auth/token_validations_controller.rb#L6) method of the [`TokenValidationController`](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth/blob/8a33d25deaedb4809b219e557e82ec7ec61bf940/app/controllers/devise_token_auth/token_validations_controller.rb) is to return the `User` object as json (sans password and token data). The following example shows how to override the `validate_token` action to include a model method as well.
-##### Example: controller overrides
-~~~ruby
-# config/routes.rb
-Rails.application.routes.draw do
-  ...
-  mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth', controllers: {
-    token_validations:  'overrides/token_validations'
-  }
-end
-# app/controllers/overrides/token_validations_controller.rb
-module Overrides
-  class TokenValidationsController < DeviseTokenAuth::TokenValidationsController
-    def validate_token
-      # @resource will have been set by set_user_by_token concern
-      if @resource
-        render json: {
-          data: @resource.as_json(methods: :calculate_operating_thetan)
-        }
-      else
-        render json: {
-          success: false,
-          errors: ["Invalid login credentials"]
-        }, status: 401
-      end
-    end
-  end
-end
-~~~
-## Overriding rendering methods
-To customize json rendering, implement the following protected controller methods, for success methods, assume that the @resource object is available:
-### Registrations Controller
-* render_create_error_missing_confirm_success_url
-* render_create_error_redirect_url_not_allowed
-* render_create_success
-* render_create_error
-* render_create_error_email_already_exists
-* render_update_success
-* render_update_error
-* render_update_error_user_not_found
-### Sessions Controller
-* render_new_error
-* render_create_success
-* render_create_error_not_confirmed
-* render_create_error_bad_credentials
-* render_destroy_success
-* render_destroy_error
-### Passwords Controller
-* render_create_error_missing_email
-* render_create_error_missing_redirect_url
-* render_create_error_not_allowed_redirect_url
-* render_create_success
-* render_create_error
-* render_update_error_unauthorized
-* render_update_error_password_not_required
-* render_update_error_missing_password
-* render_update_success
-* render_update_error
-### Token Validations Controller
-* render_validate_token_success
-* render_validate_token_error
-##### Example: all :controller options with default settings:
-~~~ruby
-mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth', controllers: {
-  confirmations:      'devise_token_auth/confirmations',
-  passwords:          'devise_token_auth/passwords',
-  omniauth_callbacks: 'devise_token_auth/omniauth_callbacks',
-  registrations:      'devise_token_auth/registrations',
-  sessions:           'devise_token_auth/sessions',
-  token_validations:  'devise_token_auth/token_validations'
-}
-~~~
-**Note:** Controller overrides must implement the expected actions of the controllers that they replace.
-## Passing blocks to Controllers
-It may be that you simply want to _add_ behavior to existing controllers without having to re-implement their behavior completely. In this case, you can do so by creating a new controller that inherits from any of DeviseTokenAuth's controllers, overriding whichever methods you'd like to add behavior to by  passing a block to `super`:
-```ruby
-class Custom::RegistrationsController < DeviseTokenAuth::RegistrationsController
-  def create
-    super do |resource|
-      resource.do_something(extra)
-    end
-  end
-end
-```
-Your block will be performed just before the controller would usually render a successful response.
-## Email Template Overrides
-You will probably want to override the default email templates for email sign-up and password-reset confirmation. Run the following command to copy the email templates into your app:
-~~~bash
-rails generate devise_token_auth:install_views
-~~~
-This will create two new files:
-* `app/views/devise/mailer/reset_password_instructions.html.erb`
-* `app/views/devise/mailer/confirmation_instructions.html.erb`
-These files may be edited to suit your taste. You can customize the e-mail subjects like [this](#customizing-devise-verbiage).
-**Note:** if you choose to modify these templates, do not modify the `link_to` blocks unless you absolutely know what you are doing.
-## Testing
-In order to authorise a request when testing your API you will need to pass the four headers through with your request, the easiest way to gain appropriate values for those headers is to use `resource.create_new_auth_token` e.g.
-```Ruby
-  request.headers.merge! resource.create_new_auth_token
-  get '/api/authenticated_resource'
-  # success
-```

-# FAQ
-### Can I use this gem alongside standard Devise?
-Yes! But you will need to enable the support of separate routes for standard Devise. So do something like this:
-#### config/initializers/devise_token_auth.rb
-~~~ruby
-DeviseTokenAuth.setup do |config|
-  # config.enable_standard_devise_support = false
-end
-~~~
-#### config/routes.rb
-~~~ruby
-Rails.application.routes.draw do
-  # standard devise routes available at /users
-  # NOTE: make sure this comes first!!!
-  devise_for :users
-  # token auth routes available at /api/v1/auth
-  namespace :api do
-    scope :v1 do
-      mount_devise_token_auth_for 'User', at: 'auth'
-    end
-  end
-end
-~~~
-### Why are the `new` routes included if this gem doesn't use them?
-Removing the `new` routes will require significant modifications to devise. If the inclusion of the `new` routes is causing your app any problems, post an issue in the issue tracker and it will be addressed ASAP.
-### I'm having trouble using this gem alongside [ActiveAdmin](http://activeadmin.info/)...
-For some odd reason, [ActiveAdmin](http://activeadmin.info/) extends from your own app's `ApplicationController`. This becomes a problem if you include the `DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::SetUserByToken` concern in your app's `ApplicationController`.
-The solution is to use two separate `ApplicationController` classes - one for your API, and one for ActiveAdmin. Something like this:
-~~~ruby
-# app/controllers/api_controller.rb
-# API routes extend from this controller
-class ApiController < ActionController::Base
-  include DeviseTokenAuth::Concerns::SetUserByToken
-end
-# app/controllers/application_controller.rb
-# leave this for ActiveAdmin, and any other non-api routes
-class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
-end
-~~~
-### How can I use this gem with Grape?
-You may be interested in [GrapeTokenAuth](https://github.com/mcordell/grape_token_auth) or [GrapeDeviseTokenAuth](https://github.com/mcordell/grape_devise_token_auth).
-### I already have an user, how can I add the new fields?
-Check [Setup migrations for an existing User table](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth/wiki/Setup-migrations-for-an-existing-User-table)
-# Conceptual
-None of the following information is required to use this gem, but read on if you're curious.
-## About token management
-Tokens should be invalidated after each request to the API. The following diagram illustrates this concept:
-![password reset flow](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth/raw/master/test/app/images/flow/token-update-detail.jpg)
-During each request, a new token is generated. The `access-token` header that should be used in the next request is returned in the `access-token` header of the response to the previous request. The last request in the diagram fails because it tries to use a token that was invalidated by the previous request.
-The only case where an expired token is allowed is during [batch requests](#about-batch-requests).
-These measures are taken by default when using this gem.
-## About batch requests
-By default, the API should update the auth token for each request ([read more](#about-token-management)). But sometimes it's necessary to make several concurrent requests to the API, for example:
-##### Batch request example
-~~~javascript
-$scope.getResourceData = function() {
-  $http.get('/api/restricted_resource_1').success(function(resp) {
-    // handle response
-    $scope.resource1 = resp.data;
-  });
-  $http.get('/api/restricted_resource_2').success(function(resp) {
-    // handle response
-    $scope.resource2 = resp.data;
-  });
-};
-~~~
-In this case, it's impossible to update the `access-token` header for the second request with the `access-token` header of the first response because the second request will begin before the first one is complete. The server must allow these batches of concurrent requests to share the same auth token. This diagram illustrates how batch requests are identified by the server:
-![batch request overview](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth/raw/master/test/app/images/flow/batch-request-overview.jpg)
-The "5 second" buffer in the diagram is the default used this gem.
-The following diagram details the relationship between the client, server, and access tokens used over time when dealing with batch requests:
-![batch request detail](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/ng-token-auth/raw/master/test/app/images/flow/batch-request-detail.jpg)
-Note that when the server identifies that a request is part of a batch request, the user's auth token is not updated. The auth token will be updated and returned with the first request in the batch, and the subsequent requests in the batch will not return a token. This is necessary because the order of the responses cannot be guaranteed to the client, and we need to be sure that the client does not receive an outdated token *after* the the last valid token is returned.
-This gem automatically manages batch requests. You can change the time buffer for what is considered a batch request using the `batch_request_buffer_throttle` parameter in `config/initializers/devise_token_auth.rb`.

+The fully configured api used in these demos can be found [here](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth_demo).
-This gem uses auth tokens that are:
-* [changed after every request](#about-token-management) (can be [turned off](https://github.com/lynndylanhurley/devise_token_auth/#initializer-settings)),
-* [of cryptographic strength](http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.1.0/libdoc/securerandom/rdoc/SecureRandom.html),
-* hashed using [BCrypt](https://github.com/codahale/bcrypt-ruby) (not stored in plain-text),
-* securely compared (to protect against timing attacks),
-* invalidated after 2 weeks (thus requiring users to login again)
-These measures were inspired by [this stackoverflow post](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18605294/is-devises-token-authenticatable-secure).
