How to add admin to Devise in Rails / Mongoid user class?

I have a User in Rails class using Mongoid and Devise. I can't figure out how to add the admin role. How To On platformtec (Devise) site, I want to run a standard Rails migration, but that doesn't work because of Mongoid.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Here's my user.rb (minus modules commented out):

class User
    include Mongoid::Document
    # Include default devise modules.
    devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
      :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable

    ## Database authenticatable
    field :email,              :type => String, :null => false, :default => ""
    field :encrypted_password, :type => String, :null => false, :default => ""

    ## Recoverable
    field :reset_password_token,   :type => String
    field :reset_password_sent_at, :type => Time

    ## Rememberable
    field :remember_created_at, :type => Time

    ## Trackable
    field :sign_in_count,      :type => Integer, :default => 0
    field :current_sign_in_at, :type => Time
    field :last_sign_in_at,    :type => Time
    field :current_sign_in_ip, :type => String
    field :last_sign_in_ip,    :type => String


    ## Token authenticatable
    # field :authentication_token, :type => String
    field :name
    validates_presence_of :name
    validates_uniqueness_of :name, :email, :case_sensitive => false
    attr_accessible :name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me
end

      

Thanks Charlie Magee

You just need to add the field admin

to Boolean so that in your User class add this line:

field :admin, :type => Boolean, :default => false

      

this is exactly the same migration to AR:



class AddAdminToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    add_column :users, :admin, :boolean, :default => false
  end

  def self.down
    remove_column :users, :admin
  end
end

      

After this addition, the whole admin method in the wiki designer works fine.
