Installation

1. Install the cli tool by running:

   npm install -g passkey-creator

Usage

To run the password generator, open the terminal and execute the following command:

create-key

You'll be prompted with a series of questions asking about the length of the password and which types of characters to include.

Tip

• I know that writing this big command is not affordable for your fingers. So to shorten this command follow these steps :-

1. Open bash
2. Type the command :

alias key="create-key"

This will save you some keystrokes. Note that this alias will only persist for the current terminal session. To make it permanent, add the alias to your .bashrc or .zshrc file.

Features

• Customizable Password Length: You can define the length of the generated password.
• Character Type Options: Choose whether to include lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols.
• Rich User Interface: The CLI interface is styled using chalk and gradient-string for a smooth user experience.
• Easy-to-Use: The CLI prompts make it easy to interact with and customize the password generation.

Dependencies

• inquirer: For interactive CLI prompts.
• chalk: For colorful terminal output.
