Installation
------------

1. Install a package.

.. code-block:: bash

    $ pip install django-password-session

2. Add "password_session" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting:

.. code-block:: python

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        ...
        'password_session',
    )

3. Add middleware:

.. code-block:: python

    MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
        ...
        'password_session.middleware.CheckPasswordHash',
    ),

4. Make sure that you have the following settings:

.. code-block:: python

    INSTALLED_APPS = (
        ...
        'django.contrib.auth',
        'django.contrib.contenttypes',
        'django.contrib.sessions',
    )

    AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
        ...
        'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend',
    )

    MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
        ...
        'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
        'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
    )

5. To avoid logging out a user from a current session you should update the session by calling the following function directly after change a password:

.. code-block:: python

    from password_session import update_session_auth_hash
    update_session_auth_hash(request, user)

Example view
------------

It's a very simple view for change password just for demonstrating how to update a current session.

.. code-block:: python

    from django.contrib.auth.decorators import login_required
    from django.http import HttpResponse
    
    from password_session import update_session_auth_hash
    
    
    def change_password_view(request):
        user = request.user
        user.set_password(request.POST.get('password'))
        user.save()
        update_session_auth_hash(request, user)
        return HttpResponse("Hello, %s! Your password has been changed!" % user.username)

Requirements
------------

* Python 2.6+ or 3+
* Django>=1.3,<1.7
