I am working on creating an app using Devise and Pundit to create users and assign them roles.
With that, I want to have role-based views in my app. I'm having a hard time thinking through how to make that possible.
When you login, if you're a user you should redirect to the user home view. If you're a manager you should redirect to a manager home view.
What's the best way, at a high level, to write that logic? Should it live in a controller, a view, perhaps utilize partials to keep things DRY....
Any tips are appreciated.
According to the Single Responsibility Principle, each object should do the smallest possible useful thing. For Rails controllers, that thing is handling requests and rendering views with associated objects. So I would put that in a controller.
Devise has a great wiki on the subject of redirecting after a successful login.
