How to encrypt password

[Ranjan]

Hi All,

In TG 1, I was using the following code to encrypt the user given
password
identity.encrypt_password(data['pwd'])

In TG2, need help to use like that.

Regards,
Ranjan

The setter method in the default auth.py model file already does that
for you automatically if you store a user password, and you can modify
the encryption method there as you like.

In my change password method, I want to compare the user input
password and the encrypted password stored in database.

You can use the User.validate_password() method for this purpose. Have a
look at the User class in the file model/auth.py.
