README

This package provides various password strength validators for the Symfony Validator component.

To use this bundle with a Symfony application use the RollerworksPasswordStrengthBundle.

Passwords can be validated using either strength-levels (weak, medium, strong etc) or by configuring explicit requirements (needs letters, numbers etc).

This library provides the same level of functionality as the PasswordStrengthBundle created by John Bafford.

Installation

To install this package, add rollerworks/password-strength-validator to your composer.json:

$ php composer.phar require rollerworks/password-strength-validator

Now, Composer will automatically download all required files, and install them for you.

Requirements

You need at least PHP PHP 8.2 and Symfony 6, mbstring is recommended but not required.

Basic Usage

Caution:

The password validators do not enforce that the field must have a value! To make a field "required" use the NotBlank constraint in combination with the password validator(s).

All examples assume you have the Composer autoloader already in your code, see also How to Install and Use the Symfony Components for more information.

Strength validation

Validates the passwords strength-level (weak, medium, strong etc).

Requirements validation

Validates the passwords using explicitly configured requirements (letters, caseDiff, numbers, requireSpecialCharacter).
