I'm following the Rails Tutorial by Michael Hartl to build a tiny demo app. I'm stuck at the logout. This is my routes.rb:
Rails.application.routes.draw do
resources :users
get "/login", to: "sessions#new"
post "/login", to: "sessions#create"
delete "/logout", to: "sessions#destroy"
# Define your application routes per the DSL in https://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html
# Defines the root path route ("/")
root 'users#index'
end
This is the relevant controller action:
def destroy
log_out
redirect_to root_url, status: :see_other
end
This is the session helper defining log_out:
def log_out
reset_session
@current_user = nil
end
and this is the link tag in the view:
<%= link_to "Log out", logout_path, data: { 'turbo-method': :delete } %></span>
When I click on the logout link, I get this error. Expected behaviour: Log user out, redirect to login screen.
What am I doing wrong?
I don't know whether it's because of Turbo, or whether Turbo is even correctly installed. I've added gem 'turbo-rails' to the Gemfile and ran bundle afterwards without any effect.

For me, adding the method: :delete worked along with data-turbo.
<span>
<%= link_to "Log out", destroy_user_session_path,method: :delete, data: { 'turbo-method': :delete } %></span>
CodePudding user response:
Check with passing method
<%= link_to "Log out", logout_path, method: :delete, data: { 'turbo-method': :delete } %>
or
<%= link_to "Log out", logout_path, method: :delete %>
CodePudding user response:
You were accessing the DELETE method route via GET. Have you run
rails turbo:install
You may want to change the sign out via GET instead of Delete in config/devise.rb
# The default HTTP method used to sign out a resource. Default is :delete.
config.sign_out_via = :get # <= change this from :delete to :get and remove the `method:` in your `link_to` helper
