* Introduction
Let's assume that I store a bunch of words in data files:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defvar ha-passwords-data-files (list (expand-file-name "adjectives.txt"
(expand-file-name "data" hamacs-source-dir))
(expand-file-name "colors.txt"
(expand-file-name "data" hamacs-source-dir))
(expand-file-name "nouns.txt"
(expand-file-name "data" hamacs-source-dir)))
"List of file name containing a data lines for our password generator. Order of these files matter.")
(defvar ha-passwords-data nil
"Contains a list of lists of words that we can choose.")
#+END_SRC
You can see where I'm going with this, can't you? Let's read them into list variables.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun ha-passwords--read-data-file (filename)
(with-temp-buffer
(insert-file-contents filename)
(split-string (buffer-string) "\n" t)))
#+END_SRC
Now we just get three or so words from our list of lists:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun ha-passwords-words ()
(unless ha-passwords-data
(setq ha-passwords-data
(--map (ha-passwords--read-data-file it) ha-passwords-data-files)))
(--map (nth (random (length it)) it) ha-passwords-data))
#+END_SRC
Let's make a password:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun ha-passwords-generate (&optional separator)
(unless separator
(setq separator "-"))
(let* ((choices '("!" "@" "#" "$" "%" "^" "&" "*"))
(choice (random (length choices)))
(number (1+ choice)))
(->> (ha-passwords-words)
(s-join separator)
(s-capitalize)
(s-append (nth choice choices))
(s-append (number-to-string number)))))
#+END_SRC
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun generate-password (&optional separator)
(interactive)
(let ((passphrase (ha-passwords-generate separator)))
(kill-new passphrase)
(message "Random password: %s" passphrase)))
#+END_SRC
* Keybindings
Got make it easy to call:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(ha-leader "a g" '("generate passwd" . generate-password))
#+END_SRC
* Technical Artifacts :noexport:
This will =provide= a code name, so that we can =require= this.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :exports none
(provide 'ha-passwords)
;;; ha-passwords.el ends here
