Custom Password Generator
=========================

[](#custom-password-generator)

A lightweight, customizable password generator by Escuelait. Ideal for generating secure, random passwords with optional symbol inclusion.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install via Composer:

```
composer require escuelait/custom-password-generator
```

Quick Usage
-----------

[](#quick-usage)

```
use Escuelait\CustomPasswordGenerator\PasswordGenerator;

$generator = new PasswordGenerator();

// Generate a 12-character password with 2 symbols (default settings)
$password = $generator->generate();

echo $password; // Example: @k1Zq9&Lm08A
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

You can customize both the total password length and the number of symbols:

```
$password = (new PasswordGenerator())
    ->length(16)   // Total length of the password
    ->symbols(4)   // Number of symbols to include
    ->generate();

echo $password; // Example: %aB3#XgF1$Ld9&kM
```

> ⚠️ If the number of symbols exceeds the total password length, an `InvalidArgumentException` will be thrown.

How It Works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

- **Character sets used:**

    - Letters: `a-z`, `A-Z`
    - Numbers: `0-9`
    - Symbols: `!@#$%&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.?`
- **Defaults:**

    - Length: `12`
    - Symbols: `2`
- **Fluent methods:**

    - `length(int $length)` — Set total password length.
    - `symbols(int $symbols)` — Set number of symbols.

Example
-------

[](#example)

```
use Escuelait\CustomPasswordGenerator\PasswordGenerator;

$password = (new PasswordGenerator())
    ->length(20)
    ->symbols(5)
    ->generate();

echo $password;
```

❗ Exceptions
------------

[](#-exceptions)

If the number of requested symbols exceeds the total length:

```
InvalidArgumentException: The number of symbols cannot exceed the total password length
```

Future Improvements
-------------------

[](#future-improvements)

- Unit tests
- Option to exclude ambiguous characters
- CLI version
