Backbone Auth Demo

This demo shows how to do a full session management in Backbone.js.

We attach a top level singleton currentUser object. Views can then listen to any signIn or signOut events on this object.

this.currentUser = new BackboneAuthDemo.Models.CurrentUser();

In the router we can use _requireSignedIn and _requireSignedOut functions to enforce the desired session state.

• user.js
• sessions_controller.rb
• users_router.js
• header.js
• sign_in.js
