Which authentication method is a better solution ? restful or authlogic ?

Question

I'm building a Rails 3 web application and i wanna choose between restful authentication and authlogic method. Among restful authentication and Authlogic, which one is better, based on the foolproof security , customisable and hackproof ?

Answer 1

restfull_authentification is anymore Rails 3 compatible and not really maintain. So I advice you to use authlogic if you want choose between this 2 solutions.

Answer 2

You might want to check out Devise, especially with a Rails 3 application.

Answer 3

As the others said, restful authentication is no longer being maintained. I'd suggest authlogic as it also packs several options to expand (OAuth, etc), or check our Devise.
