Hardened 'resque_auth.rb' Initialiser

Here's how I hardened the login via resque_auth.rb. You'll need the bcrypt-ruby gem installed.

  • Fire up IRB or PRY
  • require 'bcrypt'
  • Generate a salt: salt = BCrypt::Engine.generate_salt
  • puts salt // make sure you copy this somewhere.
  • Now, salted_hash = BCrypt::Engine.hash_secret("YOUR PASSWORD GOES HERE", salt)
  • make sure you save the longer output!

Update resque_auth.rb as follows - it limits access to the username 'admin' as well!
