def generate_unique_secure_token(length: MINIMUM_TOKEN_LENGTH)
  SecureRandom.base58(length)
end

#has_secure_token(attribute = :token, length: MINIMUM_TOKEN_LENGTH) ⇒ Object

Example using #has_secure_token

# Schema: User(token:string, auth_token:string)
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_secure_token
  has_secure_token :auth_token, length: 36
end

user = User.new
user.save
user.token # => "pX27zsMN2ViQKta1bGfLmVJE"
user.auth_token # => "tU9bLuZseefXQ4yQxQo8wjtBvsAfPc78os6R"
user.regenerate_token # => true
user.regenerate_auth_token # => true

SecureRandom::base58 is used to generate at minimum a 24-character unique token, so collisions are highly unlikely.

Note that it’s still possible to generate a race condition in the database in the same way that validates_uniqueness_of can. You’re encouraged to add a unique index in the database to deal with this even more unlikely scenario.
