The README.md

Build Status, (*1)

A fluent password policy builder library. The package can be used stand-alone or easily added to Laravel., (*2)

Table of Contents

Install

$ composer require joshralph/password-policy

Usage

Policy Builder

$builder = new \PasswordPolicy\PolicyBuilder(new \PasswordPolicy\Policy);
$builder->minLength(6)
    ->upperCase();

Any of the following methods may be chained on the builder class to build your password policy., (*3)

minLength(length)

length

Type: int, (*4)

Minimum number of characters the password must contain., (*5)

maxLength(length)

length

Type: int, (*6)

Maximum number of characters the password must contain., (*7)

upperCase([min])

min

Type: int, (*8)

Minimum number of upper case characters the password must contain., (*9)

lowerCase([min])

min

Type: int, (*10)

Minimum number of lower case characters the password must contain., (*11)

digits([min])

min

Type: int, (*12)

Minimum number of numeric characters the password must contain., (*13)

specialCharacters([min])

min

Type: int, (*14)

Minimum number of special characters the password must contain., (*15)

doesNotContain(phrases [,phrases])

phrases

Type: string|array, (*16)

Phrases that the password should not contain, (*17)

Example, (*18)

->doesNotContain('password', $firstName, $lastName)

minPassingRules(passesRequired, ruleSet)

passesRequired

Type: int, (*19)

The minimum number of rules in the ruleSet that need to pass, in order for this rule to pass, (*20)

ruleSet

Type: \Closure, (*21)

A closure which is given a new PolicyBuilder instance., (*22)

Example, (*23)

// One of these rules must pass
->minPassingRules(1, function (PolicyBuilder $builder) {
    $builder->doesNotContain('password')
        ->minLength(10);
})

Laravel

If you are a Laravel user, this package can seamlessly integrate with your validators., (*24)

Install Package

Begin by adding the below service provider., (*25)

// config/app.php

'providers' => [
    // ...
    \PasswordPolicy\Providers\Laravel\PasswordPolicyServiceProvider::class,
],

Define Policies

Within an app service provider (e.g. AppServiceProvider.php) you can start defining password policies., (*26)

// App/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php

// use PasswordPolicy\PolicyBuilder;


/**
 * Bootstrap any application services.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function boot()
{
    \PasswordPolicy::define('default', function (PolicyBuilder $builder) {
        $builder->minLength(8)
            ->upperCase(3);
            // ...
    });
}

You can define as many policies as you require, however it's recommended to stick with 'default' when possible., (*27)

Setup Validation

Once you're policies have been defined, you're ready to start using the policies. A new 'password' validation rule is now available to use., (*28)

// Request class

/**
 * Declare validation rules
 * 
 * @return array
 */
public function rules()
{
    return [
        // ...
        'password' => 'required|password'
    ];
}

The validator will use the 'default' policy by default. To use an alternative policy, add an additional parameter:, (*29)


'password' => 'required|password:admin'
