Small JavaScript helpers for creating and validating strong passwords.

Installation

npm install @cinnamon05370/password-utilities

yarn add @cinnamon05370/password-utilities

Usage

const { generateStrongPassword, isStrongPassword } = require('@cinnamon05370/password-utilities');

const password = generateStrongPassword(12);
const strong = isStrongPassword(password);

generateStrongPassword(length)

Generates a strong password using letters, numbers, and symbols. If the requested length is shorter than 8, the function uses 8 characters so the result can still be strong.

generateStrongPassword(1);
// a strong password with at least 8 characters

isStrongPassword(password)

Checks whether a password includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, symbols, and at least 8 characters.

isStrongPassword('Hello World');
// false

isStrongPassword('pC%mD8TpCKn2');
// true
