CLI Password Reset

In the event of total password lock and unavailability of the application for all administrative users, the password can be reset via the CLI:

.Jube.CLI -cs "<Insert Database Connection String>" -urpr <Insert Password Salt> <Insert User Name> <Insert New Password> 

The parameters for the function -urpr are as follows:

Parameter	Description	Example Value
Salt	The PasswordHashingKey Environment Variable	ExtraSuperSecretRandomKey
User Name	The user name to be reset.	Administrator
Password	The new password to set for the user name.	StrongPassword

As following example (noting the -cs requires the database connection string as parameter which has been wrapped by double quotation given the necessary presence of the space character in the string):

.Jube.CLI -cs "Host=127.0.0.1;Database=test;Username=postgres;Password=secret;Pooling=true;Minimum Pool Size=0;Maximum Pool Size=100;" -urpr ExtraSuperSecretRandomKey Administrator StrongPassword

Pass the new password in the clear as shown above regardless of the target user’s wire hashing scheme - the CLI handles this transparently. If the user has WirePasswordHash enabled (see Password Transport Hardening), the tool applies the same SHA-256-with-username pre-hash used by the browser before Argon2 hashing the result for storage, so the record this writes stays consistent with however the user would otherwise have set their own password. You do not need to pre-hash the password yourself either way.
