Devise sign out issue with rails 7
I am a full-stack Ruby on Rails developer with experience in PostgreSQL, Docker, Heroku, and performance optimization. I love exploring new technology stacks and have recently developed an interest in mobile app development using Flutter. My skills in test-driven development and fixing security vulnerabilities have helped me deliver high-quality, reliable code. I am also currently learning about machine learning and its applications in real-world problem-solving. I bring a unique combination of technical expertise, creative problem-solving, and a passion for learning to any team. I am committed to delivering elegant and efficient software solutions and excited to contribute to an innovative and dynamic team that shares this vision.
After creating my first rails 7 project, I added devise gem for authentication solution, and there were a couple of issues I faced because of rails 7 changes mainly with turbo streams.
One of that issue is, your regular link for the delete action do not work any more, one of example is devise sign out link:
<%= link_to "Sign out", destroy_user_session_path, method: :delete %>
Or any other link where you are using method: :delete. Now that rails 7 ships turbo streams by default, you need to make these links compatible with turbo streams by following changes:
<%= link_to "Sign out", destroy_user_session_path, data: { turbo_method: :delete } %>
with this subtle change sign out link should work again!
Happy Coding!!
