This adds Uservoice support to your Rails application including single sign-on.
gem install uservoice --source https://gemcutter.org
config.gem 'uservoice', :source => 'https://gemcutter.org'
./script/plugin install https://github.com/iltempo/uservoice.git
Generate files for your app:
./script/generate uservoice <key> <forum> [<api_key>]
Where <key> is the Uservoice account name and <forum> the id of your main forum. Find both settings in widgets section of the admin interface of Uservoice. Your API key <api_key> can be found in the API section of the admin documentation.
Default properties are stored in a file named uservoice.yml in the config directory of your Rails application. Make it fitting to your needs. Feel free to use erb expressions.
Add javascript function and configuration to HTML HEAD section of your template file:
<%= uservoice_config_javascript %>
You can override default uservoice settings in your view:
<%= uservoice_config_javascript(:alignment => 'right', :forum => 12983) %>
Single sign-on authenticates your users automatically against the Uservoice service. A second login is not needed any more.
Uservoice is allowing single sign-on starting from the Bronze plan. uservoice.com/signup?ref=nav
To use single sign-on with on uservoice you have to set your api_key in config/uservoice.yml. Find it on ACCOUNT.uservoice.com/admin2/docs#/legacy_api
The user properties can be set via the :sso parameter.
<%= uservoice_config_javascript(:sso => {:guid => @current_user.id, :email => @current_user.email}) %>
Parameter :guid should be unique identifier, for example the user id in your system. Uservoice recommends setting :email parameter to enable users to get updates and notifications via email. See ACCOUNT.uservoice.com/admin2/docs#/sso for a list of parameters available.
