Validating passwords on User model?

The method shown in the 2nd edition book, to validate users via passwords and storing them in the db securely, is great. I think this use case is perfect if users manage their own data. Using this method, I added a way for administrators to edit users – or when I want to manipulate the User data via migrations – but unless I (re)set the password and password_confirmation the validations run (and update fails). I remove the validation, resets the password to ”” values. I thought of adding a :if => {something} to the validations – but have not come up with something that works through all use-cases. Anyone else hit this problem? |
