Feature Request: Add passphrase support to the password generator

[JohnDoe-dev-spec]

Hi,

I am self hosting the PasswordPusher and it is great, however i feel like the types of passwords it generates are quite hard to remember, is there a possibility to add a Passphrase generator to it so you can opt for random characters or a random passphrase instead?

Something like this; https://www.worksighted.com/random-passphrase-generator/#passphrase-generator

Apologises if its already been suggested, i've had a look and couldn't see anything obvious.

Thanks!

This is a good suggestion. I'd like to revamp the password generator eventually. I'm a bit underwater right now but when that happens, I'll try add words and passphrases. Thanks for pointing this out.

No problem, glad it was a useful suggestion. Hope everything else is ok though as you mentioned bit underwater.

Thanks again for your great work!

This is the one reason we paused our roll out of pwpusher as the replacement for our previous solution. And thank you ;-)

That's helpful info - thanks @jonnjonzzn. I'll update here on the next update to the password generator.

This would be awesome if this could be possible. Id love for it to to be able to generate "Word-Word-##" formatted passwords.

I use this custom generator.

Just a quick update. With these settings (space as the only separator, no numbers, no titlecase) you can generate somewhat rememberable passphrases:

Eventually I will likely include word lists to generate passphrases from. This is a good article from the EFF that I'll reference when I get back to this:
