passGenerator – Random passwords for PHP

Lot of times is required to generate a password for user or to protect just something. What I did is a really easy to use function that returns a generated password. Also have some configurations to make it more powerful.

Script Name: passGenerator
Version: 0.1

Installation:

Just download the .zip file , uncompress in your htdoc and try 😉

Support: forum.neo22s.com

Usage:

Actually there’s only 1 function to make it work properly, but in the example we see it working with a normal form.

The normal usage of the function would be something like this:

$pass=passGenerator(8);

This returns a password with non repeated values (char).

I we don’t mind about if there’s repeated values we should use it like this:

$pass=passGenerator(70,true);

This returns a password of 70 chars with possible repeated values.

Notes:
If you don’t allow repeated values you need to be careful that the key is always longer than the length, if not it will return an ERROR (controlled of course)
