Generate Password

Generate Password is a (relatively) extensive library for generating random and unique passwords.

Install

$ npm install generate-password --save

Usage

generate([options])

Generate one password with the given options. Returns a string.

var generator = require('generate-password');

var password = generator.generate({
	length: 10,
	numbers: true
});

// 'uEyMTw32v9'
console.log(password);

generateMultiple(amount[, options])

Bulk generate multiple passwords at once, with the same options for all. Returns an array.

var generator = require('generate-password');

var passwords = generator.generateMultiple(3, {
	length: 10,
	uppercase: false
});

// [ 'hnwulsekqn', 'qlioullgew', 'kosxwabgjv' ]
console.log(passwords);

Available options

Any of these can be passed into the options object for each function.

*At least one should be true.

Using this with a browser

As browsers don't have the "require" method that Node.js does, this module doesn't work in web environments. Instead generate-password-browser can be used.
