My problem is that in my website only : Admin will create new users no
direct registration for users.
The way that I handle this in my applications is to use Devise
Invitable, and then restrict the invitation privilege to admins. You
don’t get to know the password, because the user sets it herself when
she accepts the invitation. But everything else just works. Since you
aren’t using registerable, you will need to provide your own “Update my
Profile” method in a controller if you want to allow the user to update
his profile, but that’s covered in the Wiki.

Why do you want the password in “readable” form? That goes against
the most basic point of even having a password…
He disallows users to register. So only admin can create a user
account, so he wants the system to send a message to the user that his
account was created with such and such login and pass.

Dear Tyler
I don’t want to store password in plain text in database. I just want to
send an email to user that your login & password is this. Devise will
store password in encrypt form in database. There will be only few(4-5)
admin and all other users will be customer.
