I have a model with name, code and password. I need to encrypt the password. Also I should'nt show a plain text in the password field. I referred to this link
Password field in Django model
But the answer is old and need to know what the present approach is.
My model is as below
class Crew(models.Model):
crew_id = models.AutoField(primary_key=True)
crew_code = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=False, unique=True)
crew_name = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=False)
crew_password = models.CharField(max_length=200, null=False)
By default, Django uses the PBKDF2 algorithm with a SHA256 hash, a password stretching mechanism recommended by NIST. This should be sufficient for most users: it's quite secure, requiring massive amounts of computing time to break.
To encrypt your data using django_cryptography, all you need to do is import encrypt from django_cryptography. fields and use it directly on each field where it is required. In app/models.py put the code given below. Then, add the code given below to app/admin.py to display your models on your admin page.
The Django's Forms The above form has two inputs - a text field named username (the name attribute in the html input field is what determines the name of input field) and a password field named password - and a submit button. The form uses POST method to submit form data to server.
in your view
from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_password
crew_password = 'take the input if you are using form'
form = FormName(commit=False)
form.crew_password=make_password(crew_password)
form.save()
