How to bypass Twitter omniauth "email can't be blank" error? - ruby-on-rails

Question

I am having a little trouble with Twitter authentication. I keep getting the email can't be blank, and redirect to sign up, but after inserting email and clicking sign up, I still get the same error. I tried making it unneeded, but I get the error saying that someone with "" email exists already.
Thanks.
Devise Routes.rb
def has_role?(role)
return true;
end
def self.from_omniauth(auth)
where(auth.slice(:provider, :uid)).first_or_create do |user|
user.provider = auth.provider
user.uid = auth.uid
user.username = auth.info.nickname
end
end
def self.new_with_session(params, session)
if session["devise.user_attributes"]
new(session["devise.user_attributes"]) do |user|
user.attributes = params
user.valid?
end
else
super
end
end
def password_required?
super && provider.blank?
end
def update_with_password(params, *options)
if encrypted_password.blank?
update_attributes(params, *options)
else
super
end
end
end
Call Back Controller
class OmniauthCallbacksController < Devise::OmniauthCallbacksController
def all
user = User.from_omniauth(request.env["omniauth.auth"])
if user.persisted?
flash.notice = "Signed in!"
sign_in_and_redirect user
else
session["devise.user_attributes"] = user.attributes
redirect_to new_user_registration_url
end
end
alias_method :twitter, :all
end

Answer 1

You can define username to be your "authentication key" instead of email by
uncommenting this line
config.authentication_keys = [ :email ]
in config/initializers/devise.rb
and changing it to
config.authentication_keys = [ :username ]

Answer 2

i also had the same problem.
this error arises due the fact that in devise User model Email field is set to NotNull.
Solutions:-
1.Set email field in devise to allow null values.
2.so i had saved the email from twitter in my devise email field this is the code for twitter
def self.find_for_twitter_oauth(auth, signed_in_resource=nil)
user = User.where(:provider => auth.provider, :uid => auth.uid).first
unless user
temp = Tempfile.new([auth["uid"], ".jpg"])
temp.binmode
temp.write(open(auth["info"]["image"]).read)
user = User.create(name:auth.extra.raw_info.name,
provider:auth.provider,
uid:auth.uid,
email:auth.info.email,
password:Devise.friendly_token[0,20],
image:temp
)
user.build_profile(name:user.name,image:temp)
user.profile.save
end
user
end
