I've just thought that it would be nice if Django supported pluggable hash
functions for passwords. Something like this:
class Sha1Hash(object):
name = 'sha1'
def get_hex_digest(salt, raw_password):
import sha
return sha.new(salt + raw_password).hexdigest()
Then it would be possible to define custom hash functions:
class PlainText(object):
name = 'plain'
def get_hex_digest(salt, raw_password):
return raw_password
A variable in settings.py could be used to specify which function to use for
hashing new passwords (analogous to AUTH_PROFILE_MODULE):
PASSWORD_HASH_MODULE = 'some.module.PlainText'
