[Rails] Solved: Troubles with bcrypt-ruby

It turned out the problem was in controller code.

ActiveModel::SecurePassword implements password= method, which is used
to set password_digest field.

so: calling record.password= sets password_diggest field.

But as I have written I am using my own form system, which uses single
controller for editing all models. I had something like this in the
controller:
fields.each do |k,v|
@record[v['name']] = params['record'][v['name']]
end

which leads to when v is 'password'
@record['password'] = params['record']['password']

which works perfectly OK with mongoid and adds password attribute to
document.

And of course doesn't call @record.password= method at all.

--------------------

Solution is to use send("password=", value) method of @record.

@record.send( "#{v['name']}=", params['record'][v['name']] )


Hope this will save somebodies hours in future.
