.current_user scope about motion-authentication

[andrewhavens]

Hey @augustosamame,

I'm so sorry that I didn't reply until now. I'm assuming you already figured it out, or found a workaround, but I can see the issue in your code. You are not waiting for the HTTP request to be returned. In your code you have:

      if Auth.current_user.nil?
        set_current_user
        mp Auth.current_user     # evaluates to nil !!!
      end

But that's because your set_current_user method is going to run asynchronously. If I were you, I would rewrite this method to accept a block:

      if Auth.current_user.nil?
        set_current_user do
          mp Auth.current_user     # shouldn't be nil
        end
      end
# ...

  def set_current_user(&success_callback)
      ApiClient.client.get "user" do |response|
        if response.success?
          Auth.current_user = User.new(response.object["data"])
          success_callback.call
        else
          app.alert "Please sign in again"
          open SignInScreen.new(nav_bar: true)
        end
    end
  end
