PasswordCheck

What checking a password against its hash says (crypto.verify_password): correct_outdated is correct against a hash made with older parameters, so store a fresh one.

Security; not ordered; since Jadpo 0.1.0.

Make one

Pick one of its variants, PasswordCheck.wrong.

text.parse(raw, as: PasswordCheck) reads one from its text; text that isn't one at all fails malformed, such as right, correctly or correct .

This operation gives one: crypto.verify_password.

Variants

3 variants, each written as its own name: wrong, correct, correct_outdated.

Text, JSON and storage

text.from writes its canonical text, the one form text.parse reads back. JSON sends its canonical text as a string.

It is stored in one column named for the field, of type text. correct is stored as 'correct'.

Shown to people

text.format(value, locale:) shows it to people in their locale.

With locale: Locale.en_gb:

Operations

• crypto.verify_password(password: Password, hash: PasswordHash) -> PasswordCheck: correct, wrong, or correct_outdated when the hash was made with older parameters and a fresh one should be stored; compared in constant time.

Like every standard type, it also has the contract's own operations: text.parse, text.from, text.format, json.read, json.write and ==. It isn't ordered, so < and sorting don't take it. Every standard type meets one contract says how they work.
