Hello,
I've noticed password policy is ignored if you set it through the Customer class.
example:
Sett password policy to something like this:
Save a customer with an 'invalid' password:
Customer c;
c.setValue("password", "abc");
c.save();
This works, and i just assume the customer class doesnt really care what your policy is, it just saves it 'as is'.
I've been scouring the SDK for a method/something that could validate the password before i input it but no luck.. am i barking up all the wrong trees or do i have to do this manually?
I looked into the password_rules table and created a short script to check what is in there:
#setLanguageLevel 3;
SearchEngine se;
se.addFields("password_rules", "id,flags,min_characters,min_numbers,min_lowercase,min_uppercase,min_special");
for(se.select()>0;!se.eof();se.next()){
printLine("id: " + se.getField(0) + ", flags: " + se.getField(1) + ", minChar: " + se.getField(2) + ", minNum: " + se.getField(3) + ", minLc: " + se.getField(4) + ", minUc: " + se.getField(5));
}
Looks like id = 2 is the policy for customer passwords:
Before i start working on a function to validate the password according to these rules myself I want to make sure there is nothing standard I can use.. It only needs to return true/false so nothing fancy and it seems weird that CRMscripts ignores it.
