Works with Rails API?

Hi,

Someone is using this gem with Rails API? it's possibile to return 403 instead of a redirect to cas login page if not logged in?

I wouldn't really recommend CAS for APIs. I'd think you'd be much better off with oAuth or JWTs or something like that. CAS is really designed around a browser and user interaction as you've seen with the redirects and other components of the spec.

Hi @adamcrown,

Yes, you right but I haven't mentioning the context: the API is used by a Single Page Application, so I only need to handle the redirect with javascript. Now I'm playing with ignore 401, I will update the issue if I find something that works.
