Django Password Generator

I have imported a heap of users and their data to a django project. I need to assign a password to each. Is the such a snippet out there for password generation that will cope with the Django hash and salt?

You can also use the built in function make_random_password

for user in new_users:
    password = User.objects.make_random_password()
    user.set_password(password)
    user.save(update_fields=['password'])
    # email/print password

Also you can use from django.utils.crypto import get_random_string out of auth module, it accepts keyword arguments length and allowed_chars as well.

If you need only a Django`s solutions, then try next:

For generate a normal password try use BaseUserManager.

In [341]: from django.contrib.auth.base_user import BaseUserManager

# simple password, it length is 10, and it contains ascii letters and digits
In [344]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password()
Out[344]: 'aYMX5Wk7Cu'

In [345]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password()
Out[345]: 'rM7759hw96'

In [346]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password()
Out[346]: 'EkbZxEXyAm'

# passed length of a password
In [347]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password(45)
Out[347]: 'dtM9vhSBL9WSFeEdPqj8jVPMH9ytsjPXrkaHUNUQu4zVH'

In [348]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password(45)
Out[348]: 'jypVaXuw9Uw8mD4CXtEhtj2E4DVYx23YTMwy8jGTKsreR'

# passed length of a password and symbols for choice
In [349]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password(45, 'abcdf')
Out[349]: 'daacbfabfccfdbdddbbcddcfcfbfcdabbaccbfcadbccd'

In [351]: import string

# password contains only digits
In [352]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password(50, string.digits)
Out[352]: '00526693878168774026398080457185060971935025500935'

# password contains only ascii symbols in lowercase
In [353]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password(50, string.ascii_lowercase)
Out[353]: 'nvftisuezofnashdhlalfmscnmqtvigwjpfwsyycsefekytmar'

# password contains only ascii symbols in uppercase
In [354]: BaseUserManager().make_random_password(50, string.ascii_uppercase)
Out[354]: 'APKSUHHHTAAJCFEUONIXWWAKJGXIBHTQDZBTSYFTPDFOSRYEQR'

If you need strong and power password, then try built-in "hashers" in the Django

In [355]: from django.contrib.auth.hashers import make_password

In [357]: make_password('')
Out[357]: 'pbkdf2_sha256$30000$JuKXdW3shCjL$PsPJX7Zale5JUBkWpIJI/+QlsuVWhz9Q+GQWVtTpQ/Y='

In [358]: make_password('text')
Out[358]: 'pbkdf2_sha256$30000$lSv8kQ39BHE7$KQC5hRhuphYBXmBrXZBJGC+nxygfNWTDf8zQf/NNgY8='

In [360]: make_password('text', salt=['simething'])
Out[360]: "pbkdf2_sha256$30000$['simething']$D+1vJQx9W2/c9sIz/J+7iEz4d4KFPg/R+0S87n/RKR4="

In [361]: make_password('text', salt=['something'])
Out[361]: "pbkdf2_sha256$30000$['something']$NIcmOkEyg6mnH5Ljt+KvI2LVgZWg6sXS6Rh865rbhSc="

Notes:

1. Used Django 1.10 and Python 3.4

Just use the API - django.contrib.auth.models.User has a .set_password() method. Here's an example (that I haven't tested, but you should get the idea):

from random import choice
from string import digits, letters
from django.contrib.auth.models import User

def _pw(length=6):
    s = ''
    for i in range(length):
        s += random.choice(digits + letters)
    return s

for user in User.objects.all(): # or .filter(...)
    user.set_password(_pw())
    user.save()

import random
import string 
user.set_password(''.join([random.choice(string.digits + string.letters) for i in range(0, 10)]))
user.save()
