How to setup api controller without the API version of Rails

Question

I'm using Rails 5 to create an API but can not use the Rail 5 API only mode as I need Devise for user auth. Here's is how I have my first API controller setup:

routes.rb

Rails.application.routes.draw do
  namespace :api do
    namespace :v1 do
        resources :skills
      end
  end
  get '/*path' => 'home#index'
end

/controllers/api_controller.rb

class ApiController < ActionController::API

end

/controllers/api/v1/skills_controller.rb

class SkillsController < ApiController

  def index
    @skills = Skill.all
    json_response(@todos)
  end


  def json_response(object, status = :ok)
    render json: object, status: status
  end

end

When I go to test this in the browser like so: http://localhost:4300/api/v1/skills.json

I'm getting the following errors in the rails log:

Started GET "/api/v1/skills.json" for 127.0.0.1 at 2017-05-25 08:44:12 -0700

How can I set this up to work?

Set up your controller like this:

# /controllers/api/v1/skills_controller.rb
class Api::V1::SkillsController < ApplicationController
# fill in the rest
end
