  1. Updating to Ember Simple Auth 1.0

    With Ember Simple Auth 1.0.0 having been released a few days ago, a lot of people will want to upgrade their applications to it so they can finally make the switch to Ember.js 2.0. While quite a big part of the public API has been changed in 1.0.0, updating an application from Ember Simple Auth 0.8.0 or earlier versions is actually not as hard as it might appear at first glance. This post explains the steps that are necessary to bring an application to 1.0.0.

  2. Rails API Auth

    We are happy to announce the first public release of the rails_api_auth gem. rails_api_auth is a lightweight Rails Engine that implements the "Resource Owner Password Credentials Grant" OAuth 2.0 flow as well as Facebook authentication and is built for usage in API projects. If you’re building a client side application with e.g. a browser MVC like Ember.js (where you might be using Ember Simple Auth which works great with rails_api_auth of course), a mobile app or anything else that’s backed by a Rails-based API, rails_api_auth is for you.

  6. Testing with Ember Simple Auth and Ember CLI

    The last blog post showed how to use Ember Simple Auth with Ember CLI to implement session handling and authentication. This post shows how to test that code.

  7. Using Ember Simple Auth with ember-cli

    With the latest release of Ember Simple Auth, using the library with ember-cli has become much simpler. As ember-cli in general is still pretty new to many people though, this post describes how to setup a project using Ember Simple Auth with ember-cli.

  9. Ember.SimpleAuth 0.3.0

    Ember.SimpleAuth 0.3.0 was just released. The main change in this release is the split of Ember.SimpleAuth into one core library and a set of extension libraries. These extension libraries include everything that’s not mandatorily required for Ember.SimpleAuth like authenticators, stores etc. so that every application would only have to load whatever it needs.

  10. Ember.SimpleAuth 0.2.1

    We released Ember.SimpleAuth 0.2.1.

  11. Ember.SimpleAuth 0.2.0

    We released Ember.SimpleAuth 0.2.0.

  12. Ember.SimpleAuth 0.1.0

    Since Ember.SimpleAuth was released in October 2013, there were lots of issues reported, pull requests submitted and merged etc. Now all this feedback together with some fundamental design improvements results in the release of the 0.1.0 version of Ember.SimpleAuth. This is hopefully paving the way for a soon-to-be-released version 1.0.
