# Authlogic::ActsAsAuthentic::Password::Methods::InstanceMethods

### Public Instance Methods

password() click to toggle source

The password

    # File lib/authlogic/acts_as_authentic/password.rb, line 229
    def password
      @password
    end

password=(pass) click to toggle source

This is a virtual method. Once a password is passed to it, it will create new password salt as well as encrypt the password.

    # File lib/authlogic/acts_as_authentic/password.rb, line 235
    def password=(pass)
      return if ignore_blank_passwords? && pass.blank?
      before_password_set
      @password = pass
      send("#{password_salt_field}=", Authlogic::Random.friendly_token) if password_salt_field
      send("#{crypted_password_field}=", crypto_provider.encrypt(*encrypt_arguments(@password, false, act_like_restful_authentication? ? :restful_authentication : nil)))
      @password_changed = true
      after_password_set
    end

randomize_password() click to toggle source
Alias for: reset_password
randomize_password!() click to toggle source
Alias for: reset_password!
reset_password() click to toggle source

Resets the password to a random friendly token.

    # File lib/authlogic/acts_as_authentic/password.rb, line 270
    def reset_password
      friendly_token = Authlogic::Random.friendly_token
      self.password = friendly_token
      self.password_confirmation = friendly_token
    end

Also aliased as: randomize_password
reset_password!() click to toggle source

Resets the password to a random friendly token and then saves the record.

    # File lib/authlogic/acts_as_authentic/password.rb, line 278
    def reset_password!
      reset_password
      save_without_session_maintenance(false)
    end

Also aliased as: randomize_password!
valid_password?(attempted_password, check_against_database = check_passwords_against_database?) click to toggle source

Accepts a raw password to determine if it is the correct password or not. Notice the second argument. That defaults to the value of check_passwords_against_database. See that method for mor information, but basically it just tells Authlogic to check the password against the value in the database or the value in the object.

    # File lib/authlogic/acts_as_authentic/password.rb, line 248
    def valid_password?(attempted_password, check_against_database = check_passwords_against_database?)
      crypted = check_against_database && send("#{crypted_password_field}_changed?") ? send("#{crypted_password_field}_was") : send(crypted_password_field)
      return false if attempted_password.blank? || crypted.blank?
      before_password_verification

      crypto_providers.each_with_index do |encryptor, index|
        # The arguments_type of for the transitioning from restful_authentication
        arguments_type = (act_like_restful_authentication? && index == 0) ||
          (transition_from_restful_authentication? && index > 0 && encryptor == Authlogic::CryptoProviders::Sha1) ?
          :restful_authentication : nil

        if encryptor.matches?(crypted, *encrypt_arguments(attempted_password, check_against_database, arguments_type))
          transition_password(attempted_password) if transition_password?(index, encryptor, crypted, check_against_database)
          after_password_verification
          return true
        end
      end

      false
    end
