Devise and JWTĭevise-jwt is a devise extension which uses JSON Web Tokens(JWT) for user authentication. Also this blog post on token recovation strategies was helpful to me in putting this together. Thanks to this tutorial on Tech Compose and the devise and devise-jwt gems. It performs better than ActiveModel Serializers and is a fork of the fast_jsonapi gem that was built by Netflix but is no longer actively maintained. The jsonapi-serializer gem is a lightning fast JSON:API serializer for Ruby Objects.

I also recorded a walkthrough of the content in this post and shared it on YouTube as well if you’d like to follow along with that yourself. I created a GitHub template repository for this approach if you want to implement it in a project and play around with it. The original post (from December 2020) can be found on GitHub, but it’s been a couple of years so I wanted to bring it up to date with newer versions of ruby/rails/devise/devise-jwt and to swap out jsonapi-serializer for fast_jsonapi. Add respond_with using jsonapi_serializers method.We see that we have three copies of this component with three different values for the text property. We'll change this to 'Goodbye,' and we'll change this one to 'It is alive,' and we'll refresh the browser. Now we can make a couple copies of this component, and we can change the text. Come over here, and we'll refresh the browser, and there you go. The text property isn't displaying any value, so we can help that out here by adding another argument 'text. Now we'll refresh the browser and, voila, we have text. Its argument is going to be the name of our component, or in this case 'message.' To get our component to display in our template, we're going to come down here into ',' and what we're going to do is add the react-rails react component helper.

Inside of the components folder, you'll see that we have '.' The generator has given us a class that extends ponent, as well as given prop types for the text property and a render method that returns a simple div, and it just displays this text property. Finally, I'm going to say, '-ES6' to give us an EF6 class in the generated component. We're going to name our component 'message,' and I'm going to give it a property of 'text,' which is a string. I can use the supply generator by calling 'rails generate react:component.' Now that we have react-rails configured, I can open the terminal. First, it's requiring react, the framework, then react unobtrusive JavaScript and adapter, and, finally, components.js. Inside of application.js, react-rails has added three require statements.

Inside of that folder, you'll see a new file called 'components.js.' Inside of that, you can see that react-rails has required the full tree of the components folder, which is empty right now, but we'll fill it up with components soon. Those are all located in the app assets JavaScript folder, so let's go take a look at that. You can see from the generator's output that several files have been created for us. Now we use 'rails generate react install' to do the initial configuration for the react-rails gem. Now that we've added that to the Gemfile, we can open up the terminal and type 'bundle install,' and there we go. We're going to target version 1.5 of the react-rails gem. The first thing we need to do to use react-rails is add it to our Gemfile, so we're going to add react-rails down here at the bottom of our Gemfile.
