[Koha-devel] User password reset question

[Josef Moravec]

Hi Stephen, you can use

Koha::AuthUtils::hash_password to encode password and then
Koha::Patron->update_password($userid, $newPassword)

you can see it in members/member-password.pl script on lines 73 and 76 in
16.11 code
Hope that helps

Josef
