This is a Ruby port of Dropbox's zxcvbn.js JavaScript library.
zxcvbn-ruby is considered stable and is used in projects around Envato.
After checking out the repository, run bundle install to install dependencies.
Then, run rake spec to run the tests.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.
To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then
run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version,
push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to
rubygems.org.
Add the following to your project's Gemfile:
gem 'zxcvbn-ruby', require: 'zxcvbn'Example usage:
$ irb
>> require 'zxcvbn'
=> true
>> pp Zxcvbn.test('@lfred2004', ['alfred'])

$ irb
>> require 'zxcvbn'

>> tester = Zxcvbn::Tester.new

information that can make cracking the value orders of magnitude easier for an
attacker. For this reason we advise you not to store the results of
Zxcvbn::Tester#test. Further reading: A Tale of Security Gone Wrong.
