Rails 4 Seeding Devise Admins -

Rails 4 Seeding Devise Admins -

i've seen few questions how go seeding users / admins / people through devise none of them working me , i'd assume it's because using rails4.

i need 1 seed. set straight seed file

admin = admin.new admin.email = 'adminone@gmail.com' admin.password = "topsecret" admin.password_confirmation = "topsecret" admin.save!

that did not work...

neither did this...

admin = admin.create! :name => 'john doe', :email => 'john@gmail.com', :password => 'topsecret', :password_confirmation => 'topsecret'

the seed functions, when seek login, invalid combination.

thoughts? i'm using

devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable, #:recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable

for model.

update: entire applicationcontroller.rb

class applicationcontroller < actioncontroller::base before_filter :set_mail # prevent csrf attacks raising exception. # apis, may want utilize :null_session instead. protect_from_forgery with: :exception def set_mail @mail_subscriber = mailsubscriber.new(mail_subscriber_params) end private def current_cart cart = cart.find(session[:cart_id]) unless cart.active? cart = cart.create session[:cart_id] = cart.id end cart rescue activerecord::recordnotfound cart = cart.create session[:cart_id] = cart.id cart end def mail_subscriber_params params.fetch(:mail_subscriber, {}).permit(:email, :name) end end

update #2

admin.valid_password?("topsecret")

gives me, seed must not have worked?

bcrypt::errors::invalidhash: invalid hash

admin.create! :email => 'john@gmail.com', :password => 'topsecret', :password_confirmation => 'topsecret'

did not work but

admin.create :email => 'john@gmail.com', :password => 'topsecret', :password_confirmation => 'topsecret'

did work. difference ! after 'create'

hopefully helps people run issue in future
