Happstack-authenticate password

[Corentin Dupont]

Hi there!

I have an app that uses happstack-authenticate.

I also uses servant to serve an API.

So the question is: how can I check the password of a given user?

I'd need a function like this:

checkUserPasssword :: Happstack m => ByteString -> UserId -> AcidState AuthenticateState -> m Bool

But I don't know how to write it. Especially I don't know how to access PasswordState from AuthenticateState.

Thanks a lot for the help!!

This seems like a good question.

No ideas on that? it's been 4 months...

Come on, I love Happstack, but I must say having no support at all makes it unusable.

It's a pity, really. Happstack is technically very well built.
My software is entirely built on Happstack foundations, but the lack of support is becoming really frustrating.

I wish I knew enough to be more helpful, but I can tell you we use the Clckwrks authenticate plugin here:

There is also an authentication example in happstack-foundation:

Thanks for the response...

I browsed through the Happs Google groups, and I discovered that several of my questions in the last year has been replied!

I thought they were unanswered, because I never received reply emails.

Actually I think there is a problem with the settings of this Google groups, because the original author doesn't receives replies.

Possibly it's a problem with the "post replies" settings:

Thanks and sorry for the rambling.
