Enclosing class:

PasswordChecker

public static final class PasswordChecker.Factory
extends Object

Internal factory to create PasswordCheckers.

This factory class allows you to build a PasswordChecker using a fluent interface. You create a Factory by calling PasswordChecker.factory(). Once all the criteria have been specified, you call the create function to create a PasswordChecker object.

Method Details

setMinMaxLength

public PasswordChecker.Factory setMinMaxLength(int minLength,
 int maxLength)

Sets the minimum and maximum password lengths allowed.

Parameters:

minLength - the password minimum length

maxLength - the password maximum length

Returns:

this factory

create

public PasswordChecker create()

Create a PasswordChecker according to the specified criteria.

Returns:

a new PasswordChecker matching the specified criteria

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if no character group has been specified

IllegalStateException - if validation would be impossible because the minimum count requirements on character groups would exceed the maximum length allowed for the password

addCharGroup

public PasswordChecker.Factory addCharGroup(String charGroup)

Add a group of allowed characters in the composition of the password.

Parameters:

charGroup - a String containing all characters allowed in this group

Returns:

this factory

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the character group contains duplicates or if the character group contains characters already present in other character groups, unless duplicates have been explicitly allowed by calling disallowDuplicateCharacters(false)

See Also:

• disallowDuplicateCharacters(boolean)

addCharGroup

public PasswordChecker.Factory addCharGroup(String charGroup,
 int minCount)

Add a group of allowed characters in the composition of the password and specifies a minimum character count.

Parameters:

charGroup - a String containing all characters allowed in this group

minCount - minimum number of characters from this group that must be present in the password

Returns:

this factory

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the character group contains duplicates or if the character group contains characters already present in other character groups, unless duplicates have been explicitly allowed by calling disallowDuplicateCharacters(false)

IllegalArgumentException - if minCount < 0

See Also:

• disallowDuplicateCharacters(boolean)

addCharGroup

public PasswordChecker.Factory addCharGroup(String charGroup,
 int minCount,
 int maxCount)

Add a group of allowed characters in the composition of the password and specifies a minimum and maximum character count.

Parameters:

charGroup - a String containing all characters allowed in this group

minCount - minimum number of characters from this group that must be present in the password

maxCount - maximum number of characters from this group allowed in the password; a value of 0 (zero) means "unlimited" (same as calling addCharGroup(String, int))

Returns:

this factory

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the character group contains duplicates or if the character group contains characters already present in other character groups, unless duplicates have been explicitly allowed by calling disallowDuplicateCharacters(false)

IllegalArgumentException - if minCount < 0, or maxCount < 0, or maxCount < minCount (unless maxCount == 0)

See Also:

• disallowDuplicateCharacters(boolean)

disallowDuplicateCharacters

public PasswordChecker.Factory disallowDuplicateCharacters(boolean disallowDuplicateCharacters)

Disallow or allow duplicates inside character groups and between character groups. Allowing duplicate is usually unnecessary and error-prone.

Parameters:

disallowDuplicateCharacters - true if duplicate characters should be disallowed (default), false otherwise

Returns:

this factory
