generate-password-ts v1.6.5

Generate Password TS

This library generate-password-ts was forked from the original Node.js version generate-password: https://github.com/brendanashworth/generate-password. This forked version was totally re-written in TypeScript from the original JS version and supports not only Node.js but also browsers without need of crypto-browserify.

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

Install

$ npm install generate-password-ts --save

or

$ yarn add generate-password-ts

For browsers, you can use node_modules/generate-password-ts/dist/generate-password-ts.bundle.js via script tags. If you simply import it at your code and use webpack (v5+), crypto-browserify should be explicitly ignored by specifying

resolve: {
  fallback: { 'crypto': false }
}

in webpack.config.js.

Usage

generate([options])

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

import generator from 'generate-password';

const 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.

import generator from 'generate-password';

const 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.
