Edit Question
Title
Body
I'm building a basic API where user information can be retrieved after that user's login and password are correctly sent. Right now I'm using something like this: http://foo:bar@example.com/api/user.xml So, what I need to do is access the user/password sent in the request (the foo and bar ) but am not sure how to access that info in a Rails controller. Then I'd check those variables via a quick User.find and then set those as the username and password variables for authenticate_or_request_with_http_basic . It's possible I'm looking at this at the completely wrong way, but that's where I'm at right now. :)
