README

Password Validator Bundle is a Symfony package to help you validate passwords against customizable criteria with ease.

Installation

Applications that use Symfony Flex

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute:

composer require jblab/password-validator-bundle

Applications that don't use Symfony Flex

Step 1: Download the Bundle

Open a command console, enter your project directory and execute the following command to download the latest stable version of this bundle:

composer require jblab/password-validator-bundle

Step 2: Enable the Bundle

Then, enable the bundle by adding it to the list of registered bundles in the config/bundles.php file of your project:

// config/bundles.php

return [
    // ...
    Jblab\PasswordValidatorBundle\JblabPasswordValidatorBundle::class => ['all' => true],
];

Usage

This bundle provides a single service for validating passwords, which you can autowire by using the PasswordValidatorInterface type-hint:

// src/Controller/SomeController.php
use Jblab\PasswordValidatorBundle\PasswordValidatorInterface;
// ...
class SomeController
{
    public function __construct(private readonly PasswordValidatorInterface $passwordValidator)
    {
    }

    public function index()
    {
        $password = 'StrongPass1!';
        $isValid = $this->passwordValidator->validate($password);

        if (!$isValid) {
            // Handle invalid password, e.g., return error response
        }
        // Continue with your logic for valid passwords
    }
}

You can also access this service directly using the id jblab_password_validator.password_validator.
