Random Password Generator using HTML, CSS and JavaScript - Coding Torque

Random Password Generator using JavaScript

Hello Guys! Welcome to Coding Torque. In this blog, we are going to create a Random Password Generator using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You should create this project if you are a beginner and learning JavaScript..

Before we start, here are some more javascript projects for you to practice:

1. Filter Cards using JavaScript

2. Typing Effect using JavaScript

3. Email Validator using JavaScript

4. Tip Calculator using JavaScript

5. QR Code Generator using JavaScript

I would recommend you don't just copy and paste the code, just look at the code and type by understanding it.


Let's go step by step:

Step 1: HTML Code

Starter Template

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">

<head>
    <!-- Required meta tags -->
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

    <!-- CSS -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

    <title>Random Strong Password Generator using JavaScript with Source Code - @code.scientist x @codingtorque</title>
</head>

<body>
    <!-- Further code here -->

    <script src="script.js"></script>
</body>

</html>


Paste the below code in your <body> tag

<div class="container">
	<h2 class="title">Password Generator</h2>
	<div class="result">
		<div class="result__title field-title">Generated Password</div>
		<div class="result__info right">click to copy</div>
		<div class="result__info left">copied</div>
		<div class="result__viewbox" id="result">CLICK GENERATE</div>
		<button id="copy-btn" style="--x: 0; --y: 0"><i class="far fa-copy"></i></button>
	</div>
	<div class="length range__slider" data-min="4" data-max="32">
		<div class="length__title field-title" data-length='0'>length:</div>
		<input id="slider" type="range" min="4" max="32" value="16" />
	</div>

	<div class="settings">
		<span class="settings__title field-title">settings</span>
		<div class="setting">
			<input type="checkbox" id="uppercase" checked />
			<label for="uppercase">Include Uppercase</label>
		</div>
		<div class="setting">
			<input type="checkbox" id="lowercase" checked />
			<label for="lowercase">Include Lowercase</label>
		</div>
		<div class="setting">
			<input type="checkbox" id="number" checked />
			<label for="number">Include Numbers</label>
		</div>
		<div class="setting">
			<input type="checkbox" id="symbol" />
			<label for="symbol">Include Symbols</label>
		</div>
	</div>

	<button class="btn generate" id="generate">Generate Password</button>
</div>


Step 2: CSS(SCSS) Code

Create a file style.scss and paste the code below. If you don't know how to run sass file, you can refer this article: How to run SASS in HTML

Random Password Generator using JavaScript

Step 3: JavaScript Code

Create a file script.js and paste the code below.

// This is a simple Password Generator App that will generate random password maybe you can you them to secure your account.
// I tried my best to make the code as simple as possible please dont mind the variable names.
// Also this idea came in my mind after checking Traversy Media's latest video.

// Clear the concole on every refresh
console.clear();
// set the body to full height
// document.body.style.height = `${innerHeight}px`

// Range Slider Properties.
// Fill : The trailing color that you see when you drag the slider.
// background : Default Range Slider Background
const sliderProps = {
	fill: "#0B1EDF",
	background: "rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.214)",
};

// Selecting the Range Slider container which will effect the LENGTH property of the password.
const slider = document.querySelector(".range__slider");

// Text which will show the value of the range slider.
const sliderValue = document.querySelector(".length__title");

// Using Event Listener to apply the fill and also change the value of the text.
slider.querySelector("input").addEventListener("input", event => {
	sliderValue.setAttribute("data-length", event.target.value);
	applyFill(event.target);
});
// Selecting the range input and passing it in the applyFill func.
applyFill(slider.querySelector("input"));
// This function is responsible to create the trailing color and setting the fill.
function applyFill(slider) {
	const percentage = (100 * (slider.value - slider.min)) / (slider.max - slider.min);
	const bg = `linear-gradient(90deg, ${sliderProps.fill} ${percentage}%, ${sliderProps.background} ${percentage +
			0.1}%)`;
	slider.style.background = bg;
	sliderValue.setAttribute("data-length", slider.value);
}

// Object of all the function names that we will use to create random letters of password
const randomFunc = {

// Getting the bounds of the result viewbox container

			generatedPassword += randomFunc[funcName]();
		});
	}
	return generatedPassword.slice(0, length)
									.split('').sort(() => Math.random() - 0.5)
									.join('');
}

// function that handles the checkboxes state, so at least one needs to be selected. The last checkbox will be disabled.
