Re: Custom password validation

Hi Larry,

You could configure the routes in the urls.py, take the create user route and plug in your CustomPasswordForm...
...
customization example of the userena urls for the normal frontend

... url(r'^(?P<username>[\.\w]+)/password/$',
        userena_views.password_change, {"pass_form": PasswordChangeForm},
        name = 'userena_password_change'),
...

cheers
Frank

I am trying to add custom password validation to the create user and
change password admin forms. I did not see anything in the django docs
about how to do this. From what I read on stackoverflow and other
sites it seems I have to write a validator and then someone hook it
into the add and change forms.

Here's what I have now in my apps admin.py:

def validate_password_strength(value):
    """Validates that a password is as least 10 characters long and has at least
    2 digits and 1 Upper case letter.
    """
    min_length = 10

    if len(value) < min_length:
        raise ValidationError(_('Password must be at least {0} characters '
                                'long.').format(min_length))

    # check for 2 digits
    if sum(c.isdigit() for c in value) < 2:
        raise ValidationError(_('Password must container at least 2 digits.'))

    # check for uppercase letter
    if not any(c.isupper() for c in value):
        raise ValidationError(_('Password must container at least 1
uppercase letter.'))

class MySetPasswordForm(SetPasswordForm):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(MySetPasswordForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self.fields['password1'].validators.append(validate_password_strength)

But what I can't figure out is how do I get MySetPasswordForm to be
used. Can anyone help me with this. If i am way off base, can someone
point me in the right direction. Thanks!
