Handling Devise login in my own controller

Question

I'd like to override the way Devise currently handle the login flow. I don't need/want /users/sign_in, I just want to use my own root_path for login handling, i.e. logging user in and handling failed password entries.

I have successfully created the form which logs in, but if an user fails to put his/her password correctly, he/she being redirected to /users/sign_in. How to make sure I keep on the same action and handle failed passwords?

Not quite. It just changes the route name, but if I get a failed password check, I'll end up in devise view, not mine. – Pedro Nascimento Dec 23 '11 at 22:46

You can use materialize devise views by running `rails generate devise:views` and customize the hell out of them. – Sergio Tulentsev Dec 23 '11 at 22:53
I know, but I don't want to customize the view. I want to use my own controller for signing in. I want to _replace_ sessions controller on devise. – Pedro Nascimento Dec 23 '11 at 23:01
Product owner requirement. Yes, I know, but it's still a requirement. – Pedro Nascimento Dec 24 '11 at 07:46
