nifty:authentication --help logged_in? error

[carusso]

Just created a new rvm install of ruby-1.9.3-p194 with only the Rails 3.2.3 gems and nifty-generator (and whatever dependencies came in for those things after I did a bundle install)

Issued a "rails g nifty:authentication --help" and the following output appeared:

Usage:
rails generate nifty:authentication [user_name] [sessions_controller_name] [options]

Options:
[--haml] # Generate HAML views instead of ERB.
[--authlogic] # Use Authlogic for authentication.

Runtime options:
-f, [--force] # Overwrite files that already exist
-p, [--pretend] # Run but do not make any changes
-q, [--quiet] # Supress status output
-s, [--skip] # Skip files that already exist

Test framework options:
[--testunit] # Use test/unit for test files.
[--rspec] # Use RSpec for test files.

I'm also facing this same issue.

[ZaiLynch]

same here on Rails 3.2.6 and Ruby 1.9.3p0

I believe the issue is the usage doc does not escape the code

/lib/generators/nifty/authentication/USAGE

  <% if logged_in? %>
    Welcome <%= current_user.username %>! Not you?
    <%= link_to "Log out", logout_path %>
  <% else %>
    <%= link_to "Sign up", signup_path %> or
    <%= link_to "log in", login_path %>.
  <% end %>

Should be

  <%% if logged_in? %>
    Welcome <%%= current_user.username %>! Not you?
    <%%= link_to "Log out", logout_path %>
  <%% else %>
    <%%= link_to "Sign up", signup_path %> or
    <%%= link_to "log in", login_path %>.
  <%% end %>

[minhson-kaist]

great!

Sorry, when I add the extra %% it shows up with the text "<% if logged_in? %>
Welcome <%= current_user.username %>! Not you?" in the view on the server site (localhost:3000).
