Hello,

I am making a register page because in my system, users are registered by 
certain users (administrators) with that permission.

I can't use web2py custom register form because when I place 
auth.register() in the controller I'm being sent to index (because I am 
logged in)

The thing is that I receive password in plain text via 
request.vars.password and I am trying to apply to the password the 
algorithm that web2py uses to insert registered user directly in auth_user 
table.

This is what I tried

from gluon.contrib.pbkdf2 import pbkdf2_hex
from hashlib import sha512

@auth.requires(lambda: check_role())
def register():

  if request.vars and request.vars.register == "do_register":
    db.auth_user.insert(first_name=request.vars.first_name, 
      last_name=request.vars.last_name, email=request.vars.email, 
      password=pbkdf2_hex(request.vars.password, 'salt', iterations=1000, 
keylen=20, hashfunc=sha512))

What is the best way to do this?

Thank you.
