Using Shopify API in different Controller

I need to get the current shop's domain (I do this using ShopifyAPI::Shop.current.domain). This works in the HomeController and can display it in home/index.html.erb. But, when I try to call ShopifyAPI::Shop.current.domain in my CustomController to display in a different view, I get the error Missing site URI.

I think this is because once the user leaves the home/index view it no longer has access to that Shop instance. So, how can I recreate that instance in my CustomController if I don't know the id. For example, this works:

@shop = Shop.find(1)
@domain = @shop.shopify_domain

But, I will not always know the shop's id in the model.

Or, maybe I am approaching this the wrong way.

Late to the party but using around_filter :shopify_session in your controller should fix this. If it doesn't, ensure that the controller is inheriting from the AuthenticatedController.

Example:

class CustomerController < AuthenticatedController
  around_filter :shopify_session

  def shops
    @shop = ShopifyAPI::Shop.find(1)
  end
end
