Handling more than one admin types login with ActiveAdmin

Question

I have an application requiring three User types(User, Agent, Admin) with login and requiring different devise modules.

                        User    AgentAdmin  AdminUser

confirmable              Yes        Yes         No
lockable                 Yes        Yes         No
timeoutable               No        Yes         Yes
Omniauthable             Yes        No          No
database_authenticatable Yes        Yes         Yes
recoverable              Yes        Yes         No
rememberable             Yes        Yes         No
trackable                Yes        Yes         Yes
validatable              Yes        Yes         Yes

Further these users may have additional columns based on their type. So, I want to create different tables based on their type.

Depending on my requirements, I decided to handle AgentAdmin and AdminUser with ActiveAdmin with different namespaces(admin for AdminUser , agent for AgentAdmin). I have configured authentication_method, current_user_method and logout_link_path for both these namespaces as below.

config.load_paths = [File.join(Rails.root,'app','admin'), File.join(Rails.root,'app','agent')]

config.namespace :admin do |admin|
  admin.authentication_method = :authenticate_admin_user!
  admin.current_user_method = :current_admin_user
  admin.logout_link_path = :destroy_admin_user_session_path
end

config.namespace :agent do |agent|
  agent.authentication_method = :authenticate_agent_admin!
  agent.current_user_method = :current_agent_admin
  agent.logout_link_path = :destroy_agent_admin_session_path
end

I have the following code in my routes.rb:

devise_for :agent_admins, ActiveAdmin::Devise.config
devise_for :admin_users, ActiveAdmin::Devise.config
ActiveAdmin.routes(self)

This generates login paths only for admin_users. If I set config.default_namespace = :agent in active_admin.rb config file, the login path for agent_admin is generated, but not admin_users.

All other ActiveAdmin paths are generated normally for both the namespaces.

How can I solve, to generate both the login paths handled by activedmin?

Answer 1

devise_for :agent_admins, ActiveAdmin::Devise.config.merge({path: '/agent'})
devise_for :admin_users, ActiveAdmin::Devise.config
ActiveAdmin.routes(self)

This solved the issue.
