Hi,
I have a user model that saves password_salt and password_hash in DB, there is no password attribute. I would like to validate the password complexity with regular expression, but because password is not an attribute validation always fails. How can I accomplish this validation using the validation framework?
Thanks.
class User < ActiveRecord::Base validates_format_of :password, :with => /^.*(?=.{6,})(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z]).*$/
def password=(pass) salt = [Array.new(6){rand(256).chr}.join].pack("m").chomp self.password_salt, self.password_hash = salt, Digest::SHA256.hexdigest(pass + salt) end
def password end end
