libpwquality bindings for Rust

Usage

cargo add libpwquality

Example

use libpwquality::{PWQError, PWQuality};

fn main() -> Result<(), PWQError> {
    let pwq = PWQuality::new()?;

    pwq.read_default_config()?
        .min_length(9)
        .max_repeat(2)
        .bad_words(["bad", "password"])?;

    let minlen = pwq.get_min_length();
    println!("minlen={}", minlen);

    let badwords = pwq.get_bad_words()?;
    println!("badwords={:?}", badwords);

    let maxrepeat = pwq.get_max_repeat();
    println!("maxrepeat={}", maxrepeat);

    let password = pwq.generate(32)?;
    println!("password={:?}", password);

    let score = pwq.check(&password, Some("password!"), None)?;
    println!("score={}", score);

    Ok(())
}

Cargo features

• vX_Y_Z: Build with system libpwquality version X.Y.Z. v1_0 Enabled by default.

• vendored: Build with vendored libpwquality. This requires cracklib to be installed. You can also set CRACKLIB_INCLUDE_PATH and CRACKLIB_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables to specify the include path and library path. Disabled by default.

• vendored-cracklib: Build with vendored libpwquality and cracklib. The build script will try to guess the path of cracklib dictionaries, but you can set DEFAULT_CRACKLIB_DICT environment variable to override it. Disabled by default.
