Random Password Generator Script/Module

[bhargavnova]

Objective

Develop a Python script or module that generates random passwords based on user-defined criteria. This tool will allow users to specify the length of the password, include or exclude certain characters, and customize other parameters to generate secure and customizable passwords.

Features

• Customizable Length: Allow users to specify the desired length of the generated password.

• Character Inclusion/Exclusion:

  • Provide options for users to include or exclude specific characters or character sets (e.g., uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols).

• Secure Randomization:

  • Implement a secure randomization algorithm to ensure password strength.

• Generate Multiple Passwords:

  • Allow users to generate a batch of random passwords at once.

Example Usage

import password_generator

# Generate a random password with default settings
default_password = password_generator.generate_password()

# Generate a random password with custom length and included characters
custom_password = password_generator.generate_password(length=12, include_chars='Aa1@')

# Generate multiple passwords at once
batch_passwords = password_generator.generate_batch_passwords(5, length=10, include_chars='Aa1@')

Difficulty: Beginner/Intermediate

Tags: Python, Password Generation, Security, Customization

Additional Information

• Ensure that the generated passwords are sufficiently strong and meet standard security requirements.
• Provide user-friendly error messages for any invalid input or edge cases.

Dear @aecuto, I have already assigned this issue to @AaroneGeorge , he might started working on that, so I won't be able to accept your request this time, you both can collaborate also, to improve the code, and add more features, so let's see how @AaroneGeorge does, the job, maybe I can combine both scripts.

Or you can work on any other open issues, or you can submit something of your own. or wait a little bit I will be adding more issues on the repo as I get some time.

Thanks Hope you understand. Happy Coding!!
