Introducing HamedStack! For all my latest libraries, visit: Explore HamedStack. Replacements and updates are available at the link. Thank you for your support! The new version of this library is accessible via HamedStack.PasswordMeter
This password meter library is inspired by pointing system in here, in which the main purpose is to help the end users to have more stronger passwords.

Adding exports
block to package.json
to support .cjs
and .mjs
.
All dependencies upddated.
System.js
module format added.
All dependencies upddated.
For unpkg
, the minified UMD
package was set.
Fix bundle's name issue.
Now, you can use the library inside a browser as well as the Node.js.
// IIFE
// https://unpkg.com/password-meter@VERSION/dist/index.iife.js
// https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/index.iife.js
// https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/index.iife.min.js
var pswm = new PasswordMeterModule.PasswordMeter();
var result = pswm.getResult("pa$$w0rd");
and also,
// UMD
// https://unpkg.com/password-meter@VERSION/dist/index.umd.js
// https://unpkg.com/password-meter
// https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/index.umd.js
// https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/index.umd.min.js
var pswm = new PasswordMeterModule.PasswordMeter();
var result = pswm.getResult("pa$$w0rd");
Fix a bug for UMD
module name.
No new feature or breaking changes just changing in project structure. (From Gulp
to Rollup
)
In getResult(password: string, ignoreCase: boolean = false, skipReq: boolean = false))
skipReq
was added.
With this option we could provide a "score" to our users based on the current
typed password (even if they aren't according to requirements).
console.log(JSON.stringify(new PasswordMeter({
uniqueLettersMinLength: { value: 5, message: "Hey!, check uniqMinLength" }
}).getResult('aZ&4aZ&4', false, true)));
// result
{"score":124,"status":"strong","percent":62,"errors":["Hey!, check uniqMinLength"]}
includeOne
added.
Now you can define custom special characters set.
console.log(JSON.stringify(new PasswordMeter({
includeOne: { value: ["#", "!", "*"], message: "Hey!, check includeOne" },
}).getResult('aZ&4aZ&4')));
// result
{"score":-1,"status":"needs requirement(s)","errors":["Hey!, check includeOne"],"percent":0}
They are looking for including at least one character from provided set, but aZ&4aZ&4
has none of them!
bug fixed: uniqueLettersMinLength
is optional now.
uniqueLettersMinLength
added.
Now you can define min length for unique letters.
console.log(JSON.stringify(new PasswordMeter({
uniqueLettersMinLength: { value: 5, message: "Hey!, check uniqMinLength" },
}).getResult('aZ&4aZ&4')));
// result
{"score":-1,"status":"needs requirement(s)","errors":["Hey!, check uniqMinLength"],"percent":0}
They are looking for 5
unique characters but aZ&4aZ&4
needs one more!
Everything except letters (a-z and A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are considered symbols,
so the symbols are not defined in advance.
An 'ignoreCase' mode is added in .getResult('',ignoreCase: boolean = false))
and also for .getResults([],ignoreCase: boolean = false)) as a parameter.
Obviously, the default value is 'false', It helps you to 'exclude' and 'blackList' passwords in an easier way
if you pass the 'true' then exclude: { value: ['test'], message: "Hey!, check exclude(s)" },
means every kind of 'test' word for example teST, TEST, Test eESt and so on are excluded.
- blackList property added. eg: { blackList : ['123456','p@ssw0rd'] }
- mustBe renamed to include.
- mustNotBe renamed to exclude.
- The getResult(s) includes percent.
- You can create an object as a fully customizable score range. { "score" : "message" }
Conditions :
1. The score range must have at least two members.
2. The last member of the score range must be "_".
- getScore() renamed to getResult()
- getScores() renamed to getResults()
