Password-strength validator for Symfony

Rollerworks PasswordStrengthValidator

This package provides various password strength validators for the Symfony Validator component., _(*1)

To use this bundle with a Symfony application use the RollerworksPasswordStrengthBundle., _(*2)

Passwords can be validated using either strength-levels (weak, medium, strong etc) or by configuring explicit requirements (needs letters, numbers etc)., _(*3)

This library provides the same level of functionality as the PasswordStrengthBundle created by John Bafford., _(*4)

Installation

To install this package, add rollerworks/password-strength-validator to your composer.json:, _(*5)

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

Now, Composer will automatically download all required files, and install them for you., _(*6)

Requirements

You need at least PHP PHP 8.2 and Symfony 6, mbstring is recommended but not required., _(*7)
