I was testing the combination of pundit and the new rails 8 authentication generator. If you use the built in authentication generator, you would get the currently authenticated user via
Current.user
notcurrent_user
. Since pundit expectcurrent_user
, some people suggesting to add that helper to the framework. rails/rails#54202I just thought it might be a good thing to point out that it could be resolved with the portion that is already explained in the README.
My suggestion is just to make it more obvious by giving the exact solution.
To do
I have added relevant tests.
