Reset password #97

Closed yuvallanger closed 8 years ago

yuvallanger commented 8 years ago

I want to be able to reset my user password through the sweat.py command.

Many thanks, Yuval Langer.

I guess you are "locked out" the web UI since you don't remember the password, don't you?

Cause you can change your password via the "profile" modal dialog.

I am not logged to my coldsweat account. Reaching the password change form is not possible for me without the password. On Feb 14, 2016 20:05, "Andrea Peltrin" notifications@github.com wrote:

"Reaching the password change form is not possible for me without the password."

Indeed, you are right. Actually there's no way to reset a password in a clean way. Of course you can change the password by accessing the database directly (with SQLite I use this Firefox extension https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/sqlite-manager/, with MySQL you have many more choices).

Like you have suggested in the future there could be a reset command or perhaps a -w (--password) option for the setup command.

FYI: version 0.9.6 allows you to reset a user password with the setup -w option.
