When using multiple configuration, what's the recommended way to save the account "type"?

[nicolas-besnard]

I'm currently using rodauth-rails in my project, and I would like to have different accounts table (accounts and admin_accounts) to have a clear separation and avoid problem in the feature.

In rodauth-rails documentation, the Wiki propose to have one accounts table and use a different one for "account types).

You can also have a new column in your accounts table to old this info.

If I were to use Devise, I could easily configure 2 different models. With rodauth, it requires to redefine a lot configuration (like verify_account_table, accounts_table etc...)

What would be your recommendation/proposal for a safe multi-type accounts using multiple configuration ?

This should be as simple as:

accounts_table do
  if admin_criteria
    :admin_accounts
  else
    :accounts
  end
end
