How to exclude a specific controller method in before_filter in Ruby on Rails?

Question

Ruby on Rails

Let's say there is a uses/new method, in routes there is also an alias 'registration' => 'users#new'.
So I write:
before_filter :authorize, :except => ['user/new']

before_filter :authorize, :except => ['registartion']

--- does not work.
But if you write :new, but you don't need to do that, because other controllers also have new.
How can the problem be solved?

Answer 1

Hello, I think this is what you need. Use skip_before_action in the controller you need.

Answer 2

before_action only: :new do |controller|
    authenticate unless controller.class.name == 'UsersController'
end

something like that, but it's better to think about the architecture
