Symfony2 custom Password Encoder (bcrypt)

Question

I\'ve written my own password encoder which implements the PasswordEncoderInterface:

class BCryptPasswordEncoder implements PasswordEncoderInterface         


        

Answer 1

As of November 2011, before Symfony 2.2, this is not directly supported.

Instead of reinventing the wheel, I suggest you to use the Blowfish Password Encoder bundle I wrote (ElnurBlowfishPasswordEncoderBundle), which solves the same problem. Or, at least, you can see how it's implemented.

If you're using Symfony 2.2 or later, see Seldaek's answer for configuration instructions.
