Documentation mismatch in webapp2_extras.security.generate_password_hash #68

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The documentation is incorrect for:
webapp2_extras.security.generate_password_hash

http://code.google.com/p/webapp-improved/source/browse/webapp2_extras/security.p
y#98

The docstring states:
Returns a formatted hashed string that looks like this:
method$salt$hash

The code says:
return '%s$%s$%s' % (hashval, method, salt)

In other words, it is method$salt$hash versus hash$method$salt
