Meteor: change a user password WITHOUT logout?

Question

Accounts.setPassword(userId, password);

Before Meteor v1.0.2, the user was not logout when calling this function.

Since v1.0.2, I quote from https://github.com/meteor/meteor/blob/devel/History.md, "Expire a user's password reset and login tokens in all circumstances when their password is changed".

I don't know the reason of this change,but the fact is that function above logout the user.

Is there a way, with v1.0.2, to change a user password without logout the user?

If not, how do I downgrade the package account-base so the behaviour is like before?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Accounts.setPassword(userId, password, options)

This method now supports options parameter that includes options.logout option which could be used to prevent the current user's logout.
