✨ Usage

clinkey works in two ways:

• Interactive Mode (cool and guided).

  Run clinkey with no arguments to launch the guided interface. It's the best way to get started !

• Direct Mode (fast and efficient).

  Use flags to get what you want in a single line.

The parameters

There are 3 different types of clinkey passwords :

• normal : set by default. Containing only letters. flag : -t | --type normal
• strong : like normal, but with digits. flag : -t | --type strong
• super_strong : like strong, but with special characters. flag : -t | --type super_strong

The length of your password is set by default to 16 characters. You can change it by using the -l | --length flag. from 1 to 10000... characters.

It is possible to generate multiple passwords at once by using the -n | --number flag. from 1 to 10000... passwords. WARNING : if you don"t want your CPU to explode, don't generate more than 500 passwords at once.

The pattern of passwords that clinkey uses hyphen and underscore as separators by default to make the whole result pronounceable. You can change it by using the -ns | --no-sep flag.

By default clinkey generates passwords in uppercase. You can change it by using the -low | --lower flag.

Eventually, you can save the result to a file and avoid echoing it to the terminal by using the -o | --output flag followed by the path to the file.
