React Password Strength

A password strength indicator field using zxcvbn to calculate a password strength score. NOTE: zxcvbn is a large library it's recommended to load react-password-strength with react-proxy or a similar tool to manage bundle size.

Try it live!

Install in your project

npm install --save react-password-strength

Note: react/react-dom is a peer dependency. You should be using this in a React project.

Run the example locally

• npm install
• npm start
• open http://localhost:8080/

Using the tool

<ReactPasswordStrength
  minLength={5}
  minScore={2}
  scoreWords={['weak', 'okay', 'good', 'strong', 'stronger']}
  changeCallback={foo}
  inputProps={{ name: "password_input", autocomplete: "off" }}
/>

Props

minLength (Default: 5)

• Minimum password length acceptable for password to be considered valid

minScore (Default: 2)

• Minimum score acceptable for password to be considered valid
• Scale from 0 - 4 denoting too guessable to very unguessable
• See zxcvbn docs for more detail

scoreWords (Default: 'weak', 'weak', 'okay', 'good', 'strong')

• An array denoting the words used to describe respective score values in the UI

changeCallback

• Callback after input has changed (and score was recomputed)
• React Password Strength passes an object with the current app state (score, password, isValid) to the callback function

inputProps

• Props to pass down to the input element of the component. Things like name, id, etc
• Passing down className will overwrite the default classes
• Protected props onChange, ref, and value cannot be overwritten and will be ignored if passed in inputProps

Classes

All styling is applied with CSS classes to allow custom styling and overriding.

• ReactPasswordStrength - namespace class and component wrapper
• is-strength-{0-4} - modifier class indicating password strength
• ReactPasswordStrength-input - password input field
• is-password-valid - modifier class indicating valid password
• is-password-invalid - modifier class indicating invalid password (only applies if password length > 0)
• ReactPasswordStrength-strength-bar - color bar indicating password strength
• ReactPasswordStrength-strength-desc - text indicating password strength
