title: User Authentication using Devise, Backbone.js and Marionette.js
body: <p>I'm using a pretty standard devise authentication setup in Rails 3.2 using token_authenticatable.  It works great, but I've decided to re-write my application using backbone.js and marionette.js for a richer client-side javascript environment.</p>
  
  <p>I guess my main question is how do I go about accessing the current user token through client-side javascript in a backbone view?</p>
  
  <p>I've read through this: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7785079/how-use-token-authentication-with-rails-devise-and-backbone-js">How use token authentication with Rails, Devise and Backbone.js?</a> but I don't really understand the approved answer.</p>
