I am trying to create a small project for practising the API Key Authentication using the this tutorial. I have created a concern in following directory of the rails project.
app/controllers/concerns/api_key_authenticable.rb
module ApiKeyAuthenticatable
extend ActiveSupport::Concern
include ActionController::HttpAuthentication::Basic::ControllerMethods
include ActionController::HttpAuthentication::Token::ControllerMethods
attr_reader :current_api_key
attr_reader :current_bearer
# Use this to raise an error and automatically respond with a 401 HTTP status
# code when API key authentication fails
def authenticate_with_api_key!
@current_bearer = authenticate_or_request_with_http_token &method(:authenticator)
end
# Use this for optional API key authentication
def authenticate_with_api_key
@current_bearer = authenticate_with_http_token &method(:authenticator)
end
private
attr_writer :current_api_key
attr_writer :current_bearer
def authenticator(http_token, options)
@current_api_key = ApiKey.find_by token: http_token
current_api_key&.bearer
end
end
In my Controller, I am trying to include the concern like this
app/controllers/ApiKeysController.rb
class ApiKeysController < ApplicationController
include ApiKeyAuthenticatable
# Require token authentication for index
prepend_before_action :authenticate_with_api_key!, only: [:index]
# Optional token authentication for logout
prepend_before_action :authenticate_with_api_key, only: [:destroy]
def index
end
def create
end
def destroy
end
end
But when I run the server and visit the index action of the controller, I get the following error
NameError (uninitialized constant ApiKeysController::ApiKeyAuthenticatable):
app/controllers/ApiKeysController.rb:10:in `<class:ApiKeysController>'
app/controllers/ApiKeysController.rb:2:in `<main>'
Can anybody help me out to fix this issue?

Author here. Your concern’s filename is authenticable
but your module is authenticatable
. You’ll need to correct the typo in the concern filename.
