rails 3 application before_filter with redirect_to

my rails 3 apps need a before_filter for check if user are logged or not. if logged, redirect to subdomain. I use Devise for log system. After sign_up the user are redirect to his subdomain, but if he come back to the website and are logged again, he must be redirected to his subdomain again.

I tried this :

if current_user.present?
company_id = current_user.company_id
@company = Company.find(company_id)
redirect_to @company.subdomain + "." + request.domain
end

with this code, the url are : www.mywebsite.comsubdomain.mywebsite.com Yeah, i think it's because redirect_to are for webpage not for new url.

I tried with 

if current_user.present?
company_id = current_user.company_id
@company = Company.find(company_id)
root_url(:host => @company.subdomain + "." + request.domain)
end

but same thing. i get the same url as previous tests.

what can i do to redirect to my subdomain?

This answer in another stackoverflow question should be your answer too: https://stackoverflow.com/a/327154/346693

What that answer provided:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_filter :check_uri

  def check_uri
    redirect_to request.protocol + "www." + request.host_with_port + request.request_uri if !/^www/.match(request.host)
  end
end

The problem of your way is you are not providing a full url (http://sth.com vs sth.com)

Consider this example: another question.

You can use this as a starting place. Basically you would wrap the call to authenticate_user! inside your own before handler and if authenticate_user! raises an exception you can do your redirect.

If it doesn't raise the exception you can redirect somewhere else.
