Keygen

A fluent PHP random key generator.

Keygen is a PHP package that generates random character sequences known as keys. The package ships with built-in key generators for four key types namely: numeric, alphanumeric, token and byte. Its implementation effectively combines simplicity and expressiveness.

Installation

With Composer

The Keygen package can be installed easily with [Composer] - require the gladcodes/keygen package from the command line.

$ composer require gladcodes/keygen

Alternatively, you can manually add the Keygen package to the composer.json file of your project and then run composer install from the command line as follows:

{
    "require": {
        "gladcodes/keygen": "~1.1"
    }
}

$ composer install

You can use it in your PHP code like this:

<?php

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
use Keygen\Keygen;

printf("Your appID is %.0f", Keygen::numeric(12)->generate()); // Your appID is 878234290135

keygen-php's Issues

Keygen::numeric(6)->generate() returns zeros

Keygen returned zeros on 3 different occasions when I generated numeric keys using Keygen::numeric(6)->generate(). Has anyone experienced this? I'd like to know if such behaviour is normal or abnormal.

Getting error

ErrorException in GeneratorMutation.php line 50:
Object of class Keygen\Keygen could not be converted to string

What about randomly generated base64 ids?

Would you accept a pull request of something like this package?

alphanum error when length is 5 or less

I try to generate random string with alphanum method but if I pass number smaller than 6 it generate error that say ErrorException: mt_rand(): max(-1) is smaller than min(0).
I think this should be ok if I want to generate random string with even length 1

Help me.

But unfortunately, there is an error during the installing composer.
