This guide is currently in the middle of being written, in the interim please use the other wiki examples.

Part 1 - Generating a new application

If you're installing Sorcery on an existing application, skip ahead to step 2.

1. Run the rails new command: rails new ~/sorcery-tutorial-app (path given as example, use whatever is convenient)
2. cd into your application: cd ~/sorcery-tutorial-app
3. Initialize git and make the initial commit:

• git init
• git add -A
• git commit -m "Initial Commit"

Part 2 - Installing Sorcery / Password-based Authentication

1. Add sorcery to the Gemfile:

# ./sorcery-tutorial-app/Gemfile
gem 'sorcery'
