Conventions:

Defining Eloquent model (will assume that DB table named is set as plural of class name and primary key named "id"):

class Shop extends Eloquent {}

Using custom table name

protected $table = 'my_shops';

This will allow you to use devise's TokenAuthenticatable strategy while passing your :auth_token in using HTTP Authorization headers instead of params.

You can check it out using

curl -H "Authorization: Token token=XXXXXX, option=1" -vv http://railsapp.dev/api/v1/endpoint.json

It should properly authenticate using the token as well as set request.env['token.options'] to {"options" => "1"}.
