Password Generator

[viera97]

Espanso extension for generating passwords on windows systems

[smeech]

No cmd or type: shell.
Nice readable python script - no malicious code apparent.
The naming convention for the package should be password-generator-win.
A few questions.

[smeech]

What does this file do? Is it needed?

[smeech]

Quite long but nice and readable.

On the other hand, you could dispense with the separate script and make package.yml something like:

  - regex: :genpass\((?P<myvar>\d*)\)
    replace: "{{output}}"
    vars:
      - name: output
        type: script
        params:
          args: 
            - python
            - -c
            - |
              import random, string, pyperclip
              characters = string.ascii_letters + string.punctuation + string.digits
              n = max(4, int('{{myvar}}') if '{{myvar}}'.isdigit() else 12)
              while True:
                password = ''.join(random.choice(characters) for _ in range(n))
                if (any(c.islower() for c in password) and any(c.isupper() for c in password) and any(c in string.punctuation for c in password) and any(c.isdigit() for c in password)):
                  break
              pyperclip.copy(password)
              print(password)

which should work in all OSs that have Python installed as there are no paths required.

Triggered by :genpass() for 12-character passwords, and :genpass(n) for n-length passwords.

Could this be included in README.md?

[smeech]

Ah - it's a reference to another package.

[smeech]

I think Windows will use forward slashes in paths - you could use that format for an OS-independent package.

I'm sorry it's been so long, @viera97, and I wouldn't be suprised if you've lost interest in this PR.
I'll close it for now, but it can be reopened if you wish.
All the best.
