# Luzifer / password
|
|
|
|
The intention of this project is to provide a fast and secure way to generate one or more passwords using a CLI tool, a HTTPs page or a HTTPs API.
|
|
|
|
For the security of the passwords there are several assertions:
|
|
|
|
- The password may not contain pattern found on the keyboard or in alphabet
|
|
- The password must have 3 or 4 different character groups in it depending on whether special characters are requested
|
|
- The password may not have repeating characters
|
|
- The API generator does not transmit or store any data about the generated passwords
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Via Web
|
|
|
|
My service [Secure Password](https://passwd.fyi/) is powered by this app and will provide you with secure passwords.

2. Generate your password:
|
|
|
|
```console
|
|
$ ./password get -h
|
|
generate and return a secure random password
|
|
|
|

|
### Via API
|
|
|
|
- `/v1/getPassword` - Retrieve a password from the API
|
|
- `date=true` - Set to `false` no to prepend the date to XKCD-style passwords
|
|
- `length=20` - Specify the length of the password to generate (the API only supports values between 4 and 128 - for more characters use the CLI)
|
|
- `special=false` - Set to `true` to enable special characters
|
|
- `xkcd=false` - Set to `true` to enable XKCD-style passwords
|
|
|
|
#### Self-Hosted

2. Run the API server:
|
|
