Override Devise Registrations Controller Two Times?

I have two models, User and Admin. I want to know if its possible to override Devise's Registrations Controller and have two custom Registrations Controllers - one for each model.

I know its possible to get what I want by overriding the registrations controller and I would just use If else statements although (correct me if I am wrong) I believe its better to avoid having many if else statements if possible.

You can see what I've done so far on another post - I have scoped views and it uses the wrong set of views for some reason. Devise Views with Multiple Models

Yes it's possible

Routes

When you generate Devise for both models, you'll have to add it to your routes:

#config/routes.rb
devise_for :users
devise_for :admin

Devise actually uses these routes to populate its arguments, one of which is the controllers argument:

#config/routes.rb
devise_for :users, controllers: { sessions: "sessions", registrations: "registrations" }
devise_for :admin, controllers: { registrations: "admin/session" }

Controllers

This will allow you to create controllers to override the Devise default ones:

#app/controllers/registrations_controller.rb
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
    #Your Code Here
end

#app/controllers/admin/registrations_controller.rb
class Admin::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
    #Your Code Here
end
