Features

• Generate cryptographically strong passwords
• Customizable length (8-64 characters)
• Toggle character sets:
  • Lowercase letters (a-z)
  • Uppercase letters (A-Z)
  • Digits (0-9)
  • Special characters (!@#$%^&*)
• Guaranteed to include at least one character from each enabled set
• Properly shuffled to avoid predictable patterns

Installation

pip install dikshantlock

Basic Usage

from dikshantlock import generate  

# Generate a default 12-character password  
password = generate()  
print(password)  # Example: "k7@j9Lp2#qR!" (contains at least one of each character type)

# Generate a 16-character password without special chars  
simple_pass = generate(length=16, special=False)  

Advanced Usage

Custom Character Sets

# Numbers only (6-digit PIN code)  
pin = generate(length=6, lowercase=False, uppercase=False, special=False)  

# Letters only (no numbers/special chars)  
memorable = generate(length=20, digits=False, special=False)  

# No lowercase letters  
password = generate(lowercase=False)  

Maximum Security Password

max_security = generate(length=32)  # 32 chars with all character sets enabled  

API Reference

generate(
    length=12,
    lowercase=True,
    uppercase=True,
    digits=True,
    special=True
)

Parameters:

• length: Password length (8-64, default: 12)
• lowercase: Include a-z (default: True)
• uppercase: Include A-Z (default: True)
• digits: Include 0-9 (default: True)
• special: Include special chars (default: True)

Returns:

• str - Generated password containing at least one character from each enabled set

Raises:

• ValueError if length is invalid or no character sets are enabled

Examples

Generate API Key

api_key = generate(length=32, special=False)  # Alphanumeric only  

Create Database Password

db_pass = generate(length=24, lowercase=False)  # Uppercase + digits + special chars only  

Temporary Access Token

token = generate(length=16, special=False, uppercase=False)  # Lowercase + digits only  

Security Guarantees

• Uses cryptographically secure random number generation
• Always includes at least one character from each enabled character set
• Passwords are properly shuffled to avoid predictable patterns
• Validates all inputs to prevent weak password generation
