I wrote my own Filter
lib/HTML/FormFu/Filter/myApp/Digest_SHA.pm
package HTML::FormFu::Filter::myApp::Digest_SHA;
use strict;
use warnings;
use base 'HTML::FormFu::Filter';
use Digest::SHA qw/sha1_hex/;
sub filter {
my ( $self, $value, $params ) = @_;
return sha1_hex($value);
}
1;
and in my create.yml
- type: Password
name: password
filters:
- type: "myApp::Digest_SHA"
works fine, but since I also use the repeat_password constraint and
the filter is applied before passwords are compared I will not use
this approach and rather change the password prior to
updating/inserting into the database.
