Devise password reset from Rails console

Modern devise allows simpler syntax, no need to set the confirmation field

user.password = new_password; user.save
# or
user.update(password: new_password)

# $ rails console production
u=User.where(:email => '[email protected]').first
u.password='userpassword'
u.password_confirmation='userpassword'
u.save!

If you run the following in the rails console it should do the trick:

User.find_by(email: 'user_email_address').reset_password!('new_password','new_password')

You can simply update password field, no need for confirmation password, devise will save it in encrypted form

u = User.find_by_email('[email protected]')
u.update_attribute(:password, '123123')
