Usage

# settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'zxcvbn_password',
    ...
]

AUTH_PASSWORD_VALIDATORS = [
    {
        'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.UserAttributeSimilarityValidator',
    },
    {
        'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.MinimumLengthValidator',
    },
    {
        'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.CommonPasswordValidator',
    },
    {
        'NAME': 'django.contrib.auth.password_validation.NumericPasswordValidator',
    },
    {
        'NAME': 'zxcvbn_password.ZXCVBNValidator',
        'OPTIONS': {
            'min_score': 3,
            'user_attributes': ('username', 'email', 'first_name', 'last_name')
        }
    }
]
# forms.py

from django import forms
from zxcvbn_password.fields import PasswordField, PasswordConfirmationField

class RegisterForm(forms.Form):
    password1 = PasswordField()
    password2 = PasswordConfirmationField(confirm_with=password1)
# views.py

if form.is_valid():
    user = User.objects.create_user(
        username=...,
        password=form.cleaned_data['password1']
    )

By default, other inputs won’t be used to compute the score, but you can enforce it like this:

# forms.py

from django import forms
from zxcvbn_password import zxcvbn
from zxcvbn_password.fields import PasswordField, PasswordConfirmationField

class RegisterForm(forms.Form):
    password1 = PasswordField()
    password2 = PasswordConfirmationField(confirm_with=password1)

    def clean(self):
        password = self.cleaned_data.get('password1')
        other_field1 = ...
        other_field2 = ...

        if password:
            score = zxcvbn(password, [other_field1, other_field2])['score']
            # score is between 0 and 4
            # raise forms.ValidationError if needed

        return self.cleaned_data
