Hi,
Auth.login overwrites any custom email validators that you define.
Specifically, line 1019 of tools.py overwrites
table_user[username].requires with
IS_EMAIL(error_message=self.messages.invalid_email). Why is this
necessary? For example, it means that this does NOT work:
db.py
-----
auth_table = db.define_table(
auth.settings.table_user_name,
Field('email', length=128, default='',
unique=True, writable=True),
...)
auth_table.email.requires = [
IS_LOWER(),
IS_EMAIL(error_message=auth.messages.invalid_email)]
Email must be case-sensitive?! Anyway, I suggest the following patch
to tools.py:
Replace:
1019 table_user[username].requires = tmpvalidator
With:
1019 table_user[username].requires = table_user[username].requires or
tmpvalidator
Or if you consider this a feature, perhaps a new setting?
1019 if not self.settings.login_email_custom_validators:
table_user[username].requires = tmpvalidator
Thanks
Russell
