Read about all [ here](https://xato.net/10-000-top-passwords-6d6380716fe0#.473dkcjfm), [here(wired)](http://www.wired.com/2013/12/web-semantics-the-ten-thousand-worst-passwords/) or [here(telegram)](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/internet-security/10303159/Most-common-and-hackable-passwords-on-the-internet.html) Installation ------------ [](#installation) [PHP](https://php.net) 5.5+ or [HHVM](http://hhvm.com) 3.3+, and [Composer](https://getcomposer.org) are required. To get the latest version of Laravel Password, simply add the following line to the require block of your `composer.json` file. ``` "unicodeveloper/laravel-password": "1.0.*" ``` You'll then need to run `composer install` or `composer update` to download it and have the autoloader updated. - If you're on Laravel 5.5 or above, that's all you need to do! Check out the usage examples below. - If you're on Laravel < 5.5, you'll need to register the service provider. Open up `config/app.php` and add the following to the `providers` array: ``` Unicodeveloper\DumbPassword\DumbPasswordServiceProvider::class ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Use the rule `dumbpwd` in your validation like so: ``` /** * Get a validator for an incoming registration request. * * @param array $data * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Validator */ protected function validator(array $data) { return Validator::make($data, [ 'name' => 'required|max:255', 'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:users', 'password' => 'required|min:6|dumbpwd|confirmed', ]); } ``` Error shows on the page like so: [![screen shot 2016-07-02 at 1 22 45 pm](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/2946769/16540468/c6bd71f2-405d-11e6-8f34-d3a9b1b27e77.png)](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/2946769/16540468/c6bd71f2-405d-11e6-8f34-d3a9b1b27e77.png) By default, the error message returned is `This password is just too common. Please try another!`. You can customize the error message by opening `resources/lang/en/validation.php` and adding to the array like so: ``` 'dumbpwd' => 'You are using a dumb password abeg', ``` [![screen shot 2016-07-02 at 2 12 14 pm](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/2946769/16540503/103e0390-405f-11e6-9c4c-5d02dc1ce7ec.png)](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/2946769/16540503/103e0390-405f-11e6-9c4c-5d02dc1ce7ec.png) Change log ---------- [](#change-log) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
