Question on usage

[davesag]

Hi, I was wondering if you could answer this for me.

I want to use bcrypt to one-way hash my User passwords.

I've posted a question to StackOverflow regarding this, but figured I'd ask you directly.

Assuming my User is along the lines of your Readme file.

class User
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Encryptor
  field :name
  field :password
  encrypts :password
end

Could I just write a helper method in my webapp as follows?

def login (name, cleartxtpass)
  return User.where(name: name, password: cleartxtpass).first
end

If so is how do I tell it to use bcrypt? and is there any preprocessing I need to do to cleartxtpass

Cheers

Dave
