auth.hashers.make_password()

make_password(password, salt=None, hasher='default') [source]

Creates a hashed password in the format used by this application. It takes one mandatory argument: the password in plain-text. Optionally, you can provide a salt and a hashing algorithm to use, if you don’t want to use the defaults (first entry of PASSWORD_HASHERS setting). See Included hashers for the algorithm name of each hasher. If the password argument is None, an unusable password is returned (a one that will be never accepted by check_password()).
