devpi-passwd-reset: password reset view for devpi-web

This plugin adds a new view allowing users to reset their passwords.

Installation

devpi-passwd-reset needs to be installed alongside devpi-web.

You can install it with:

pip install devpi-passwd-reset

There are no further installation steps needed as devpi-server will automatically discover the plugin through calling hooks using the setuptools entry points mechanism.

Usage

In a default installation, the view would be accessible at http://localhost:3141/+password-reset.

Users can enter a user name or email address. If a matching user exists and has the email set, a mail is sent with a link to set a new password. The link is valid for 24h as long as the password wasn't changed in the meantime.

Configuration

You have to configure mail server settings by providing --passwd-reset-config=path_to_config.

Create a yaml file with a dictionary containing another dictionary under the pyramid_mailer key.

You must at least provide the mail.default_sender setting. By default mail.host is localhost and mail.port is 25.

See http://pythonhosted.org/pyramid_mailer/#configuration on configuration options available.

Example config:

pyramid_mailer:
    mail.port: 8025
    mail.default_sender: mail@example.com

devpi-passwd-reset plugin hooks

Plugins can add password validation to enforce policies using the devpi_passwd_reset entry point in setup.py.

def devpipasswdreset_validate(password):
    """Called to validate a password.

      Raises ValueError which is used as message to the user.
    """
