Devise, twitter - ask for confirmation by email

Question

I implemented twitter authentication using an application similar to this: https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/wiki/OmniAuth:-Overview

My question is: since twitter does not give you the email address of the user, how can you redirect the user to the stream:

• User subscribes via twitter
• User receives email form
• User must verify their email address
• a confirmation link sends the user to a site registered in

Work heavily on C # 3 and # 4. How should I structure my code to allow # 2 to go into # 3 and # 4?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Show new user form on twitter callback page. Store the tweeter token in a hidden field. Then you can create a new user in your controller and do what you want with the twitter token. User.create also sends a confirmation email.

User.create(:email => params[:email], :password => params[:password], :password_confirmation => params[:password_confirmation]) 

Answer 2

Ryan Bates covers most of this in his OmniAuth Part 2 screencast to receive email confirmation, all you have to do is add confirmable for development.
