authentication with bcrypt on flask without database

Time:04-23

i have created password authentication with bcrypt on flask not with database. so the story is that I want to login the password using a hashed password. but can't even log me in. is there something wrong???

@auth.verify_password def authenticate(username, password):

user = 'alfara'
passwd = 'alfara'

if username and password:
    pw_hash = bcrypt.generate_password_hash(passwd).decode('utf-8')
    if username == user and password == pw_hash:
        return bcrypt.check_password_hash(pw_hash, passwd)
    else:
        return False
return False

CodePudding user response:

The idea of password hashing is that you do not store the clear text password. Your code fail in this. You could just compare passwd and password directly.

If you want, you can do

passwd = bcrypt.generate_password_hash("alfara")

Then do it like this

if username and password:
    verify = bcrypt.check_password_hash(passwd, password)
    if verify and username == user:
        return "Username and Password Matched"
