Generating Random Password

See more PRNG Examples

Demonstrates how to generate random passwords. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    success = false

    let fortuna = CkoPrng()!

    // Set this equal to true if the generated password must include at least one digit (0-9)
    var bDigit: Bool = true

    // Set this equal to true if the generated password must include both uppercase and lowercase chars.
    var bUpperAndLower: Bool = true

    // The generated password must contain one of the following non-alphanumeric chars.
    var otherChars: String? = "@#$%*"

    // Exclude chars that appear similar to others:
    var excludeChars: String? = "iIlLoO0"

    // Generate 8-character passwords:
    var i: Int
    for i = 1; i <= 10; i++ {
        print("\(fortuna.randomPassword(length: 8, mustIncludeDigit: bDigit, upperAndLowercase: bUpperAndLower, mustHaveOneOf: otherChars, excludeChars: excludeChars)!)")
    }
