Using service

Simple usage

using Utilities.PasswordGenerator.Services;

public class MyProcess
{
	public string Generate()
	{
		var passwordGeneratorService = new PasswordGeneratorService();

		// generate 8 characters password with at least 1 uppercase, 1 lowercase, 1 numeric and 1 special character
		return passwordGeneratorService.Generate();
	}
}

Generate with specific length

You can generate 8~32 characters password by specifying the length. (default: 8)

using Utilities.PasswordGenerator.Services;

public class MyProcess
{
	public string Generate()
	{
		var passwordGeneratorService = new PasswordGeneratorService();

		// generate 16 characters password with at least 1 uppercase, 1 lowercase, 1 numeric and 1 special character
		return passwordGeneratorService.Generate(16);
	}
}

Generate with required characters options

You can generate 8~32 characters password with specific options, i.e. at least 3 uppercase, 3 lowercase, 2 numeric and 1 special character.

using Utilities.PasswordGenerator.Services;

public class MyProcess
{
	public string Generate()
	{
		var passwordGeneratorService = new PasswordGeneratorService();

		// generate 16 characters password with at least 3 uppercase, 3 lowercase, 2 numeric and 1 special character
		return passwordGeneratorService.Generate(16, 3, 3, 2, 1);
	}
}

Custom special characters

Default special characters are ! @ # $ % ^ * ( ) - _ = + ?. You can setup your own special characters by giving specialChars parameter.

using Utilities.PasswordGenerator.Services;

public class MyProcess
{
	public string Generate()
	{
		var passwordGeneratorService = new PasswordGeneratorService();

		// generate 16 characters password with at least 1 uppercase, 1 lowercase, 1 numeric and 1 special character (~!@#<>)
		return passwordGeneratorService.Generate(16, specialChars: "~!@#<>");
	}
}

In case you don't want any special characters, you can set specialChars to empty string.

using Utilities.PasswordGenerator.Services;

public class MyProcess
{
	public string Generate()
	{
		var passwordGeneratorService = new PasswordGeneratorService();

		// generate 16 characters password with at least 1 uppercase, 1 lowercase, 1 numeric and no special character
		return passwordGeneratorService.Generate(16, specialChars: "");
	}
}

Use dependency injection

using Utilities.PasswordGenerator.Interfaces;

public class MyProcess
{
	private readonly IPasswordGeneratorService _passwordGeneratorService;

	public MyProcess(IPasswordGeneratorService passwordGeneratorService) =>
		_passwordGeneratorService = _passwordGeneratorService;

	public string Generate() =>
		_passwordGeneratorService.Generate();
}
