I am looking to write a validator that takes as its arguments a request.post_vars.pass1 and request.post_vars.pass2. This is to check if when the use enters a password in 2 fields that they are the same.
It then checks if they match, and if they don't it flashes an error saying passwords do not match. In addition, two questions: 1. Where should I store this custom validator? 2. How do I import this custom validator to use in my controller? Here is the code I have so far: from storage import Storage from gluon.utils import md5_hash class IS_PASS_MATCH(object): """ example: INPUT(_type='text',_name='pass1',requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()) INPUT(_type='text',_name='pass2',requires=IS_PASS_MATCH (request.post_vars.pass1, request.post_vars.pass2)) """ def __init__(self, passwd1, passwd2, error_message='Passwords do not match!'): self.error_message = error_message self.pass1 = passwd1 self.pass2 = passwd2 def __call__(self, value): try: if(self.pass1 == self.pass2): return(value, None) else: return (value, self.error_message) except: return (value, self.error_message) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py Web Framework" group.
