go-passwords

Passphrase & Password generation library for GoLang.

Passphrases

Passphrases are made up of 2 or more words connected by a separator and may have capitalized words, and numbers. These are easier for humans to remember compared to passwords.

The passphrase package helps generate these and supports the following rules that be used during generation:

• Capitalize words used in the passphrase (foo -> Foo)
• Use a custom dictionary of words instead of built-in English dictionary
• Use X number of Words
• Insert a random number behind one of the words
• Use a custom separator
• Use words with a specific length-range

Example

	g, err := passphrase.NewGenerator(
		passphrase.WithCapitalizedWords(true),
		passphrase.WithDictionary(dictionaries.English()),
		passphrase.WithNumWords(3),
		passphrase.WithNumber(true),
		passphrase.WithSeparator("-"),
		passphrase.WithWordLength(4, 6),
	)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err.Error())
	}
	for idx := 1; idx <= 10; idx++ {
		fmt.Printf("Passphrase #%3d: %#v\n", idx, g.Generate())
	}

Output...

Passphrase #  1: "Peage6-Blousy-Whaup"
Passphrase #  2: "Crape0-Natter-Pecs"
Passphrase #  3: "Facers-Razzed-Jupes6"
Passphrase #  4: "Jingko1-Shell-Stupor"
Passphrase #  5: "Nailer-Turgid-Sancta4"
Passphrase #  6: "Rodeo5-Cysts-Pinons"
Passphrase #  7: "Mind-Regina-Swinks9"
Passphrase #  8: "Babas5-Lupous-Xylems"
Passphrase #  9: "Ocreae-Fusel0-Jujube"
Passphrase # 10: "Mirks6-Woofer-Lase"

Passwords

Passwords are a random amalgamation of characters.

The password package helps generate these and supports the following rules that be used during generation:

• Use a specific character-set
• Restrict the length of the password
• Use at least X lower-case characters
• Use at least X upper-case characters
• Use at least X and at most Y symbols

Example

	g, err := password.NewGenerator(
		password.WithCharset(charset.AllChars.WithoutAmbiguity().WithoutDuplicates()),
		password.WithLength(12),
		password.WithMinLowerCase(5),
		password.WithMinUpperCase(2),
		password.WithNumSymbols(1, 1),
	)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err.Error())
	}
	for idx := 1; idx <= 10; idx++ {
		fmt.Printf("Password #%3d: %#v\n", idx, g.Generate())
	}

Output...

Password #  1: "jQwRvL#oye7q"
Password #  2: "T2WRwSbwghc^"
Password #  3: "S@DxkUwkunhy"
Password #  4: "NJ4wxhSygLm&"
Password #  5: "phHfuqw*uAPq"
Password #  6: "$3XDCoLXdeqq"
Password #  7: "enzB*ENGhsQm"
Password #  8: "ioCfs&cLJgyd"
Password #  9: "obwEEEthM$MC"
Password # 10: "kmQVb&fPqexj"

Odometer

Odometer helps generate all possible string combinations of characters given a list of characters and the expected length of the string.

The odometer package provides optimal interfaces to move through the list:

• Decrement()
• DecrementN(n)
• GoTo(n)
• Increment()
• IncrementN(n)
• etc.

Example

	o := odometer.New(charset.AlphabetsUpper, 8)

	for idx := 1; idx <= 10; idx++ {
		fmt.Printf("Password #%3d: %#v\n", idx, o.String())

		if o.AtEnd() {
			break
		}
		o.Increment()
	}

Output...

Password #  1: "AAAAAAAA"
Password #  2: "AAAAAAAB"
Password #  3: "AAAAAAAC"
Password #  4: "AAAAAAAD"
Password #  5: "AAAAAAAE"
Password #  6: "AAAAAAAF"
Password #  7: "AAAAAAAG"
Password #  8: "AAAAAAAH"
Password #  9: "AAAAAAAI"
Password # 10: "AAAAAAAJ"
