Add an item when logging in with devise

Add an item when logging in with devise

If you create a login function with devise, it is originally only an email address and password, but it is a method to add columns for other items.

Add the column you want to create

This time, add a column called company as an example.

$ rails g migration AddColumnToUsers company

Let's take a look at the created migration file. If you do not set the default value, an error will occur, so I will describe it.

Creation date and time_add_company_to_users.rb

class AddCompanyToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration[5.2]
  def change
    add_column :users, :company, :string, null: false, default: ''
  end
end

When the description is finished, reflect it in the DB.

$ rails db:migrate

Add form to view

Add a form so that you can enter values in the columns you created. If you haven't created a devise view, create one.

$ rails g devise:views

registrations/new.html.erb

Add here---------------------------------
  <div class="field">
    <%= f.label :Please enter the hospital name and company name%><br />
    <%= f.text_field :company, autofocus: true, class: "new_inform"%>
  </div>
---------------------------------
  <div class="field">
    <%= f.label :Please enter your e-mail address%><br />
    <%= f.email_field :email, autofocus: true, autocomplete: "email", class: "new_inform" %>
  </div>

  <div class="field">
    <%= f.label :Please enter your password%>
    <% if @minimum_password_length %>
    <em>(<%= @minimum_password_length %>letter)</em>
    <% end %><br />
    <%= f.password_field :password, autocomplete: "new-password", class: "new_inform" %>
  </div>

  <div class="field">
    <%= f.label :Please enter your password again%><br />
    <%= f.password_field :password_confirmation, autocomplete: "new-password", class: "new_inform" %>
  </div>

  <div class="actions">
    <%= f.submit "sign up", class: "new_submit" %>
  </div>
<% end %>

Reflect the added column in DB

Use the configure_permitted_parameters method to set strong parameters.

devise\app\controllers\application_controller.rb

  before_action :configure_permitted_parameters, if: :devise_controller?

  protected

    def configure_permitted_parameters
      devise_parameter_sanitizer.permit(:sign_up, keys: [:company])
    end

Now it can be reflected in the DB.

I would appreciate it if you could point out any mistakes. Thank you for watching until the end.
