rake db:migrate

Add update_by to model Post

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  updated_by
end

Add current_user to model User

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  cattr_accessor :current_user

This plugin adds two methods (created_by and updated_by) to models that included¶ ↑

<%- unless @post.created_by.nil? %>

criado por: <%= @post.created_by.user_name %>

<%- end %>

ATENTION¶ ↑

To get things working properly, it’s necessary that current_user is available and user is logged in.
