Public / Private in Ruby on Rails

I generated some scaffold for a title (string) and the body (content) called 'documents' to allow users to post things.

The problem is is that anybody can view the document. Is there a way to make it "private" so only the user can view it?

Yes, you need to setup authentication in your app. Then you'll only allow logged in users to view the document and reject the others.

Watch this excellent railscast: Authentication from Scratch.
