In this tutorial, we will explore how to create a working JavaScript password generator using ChatGPT. Password generators are essential tools that help users generate secure and unique passwords for their accounts and online activities. We will use ChatGPT to generate a password based on specific criteria set by the user, such as length, complexity, and character sets.
To get started, you will need basic knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You also need to have a ChatGPT API key to integrate the AI-powered model into your project. If you don’t have an API key, sign up for the API on the OpenAI website.
Let’s begin with the HTML part of the project. Create an HTML file and add the following code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Password Generator</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<h1>Password Generator</h1>
<label for="length">Password Length:</label>
<input type="number" id="length" min="6" max="20" placeholder="Enter password length..." required>
<label for="includeLowercase">Include Lowercase Letters:</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="includeLowercase">
<label for="includeUppercase">Include Uppercase Letters:</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="includeUppercase">
<label for="includeNumbers">Include Numbers:</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="includeNumbers">
<label for="includeSpecialChars">Include Special Characters:</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="includeSpecialChars">
<button onclick="generatePassword()">Generate Password</button>
<div id="password"></div>
</div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>This HTML code sets up the basic structure of our password generator interface. It includes input fields for password length and checkboxes to include lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters. When the user clicks the "Generate Password" button, the JavaScript function generatePassword() will be triggered to generate a password based on the user’s criteria.
Next, create a CSS file named styles.css and add the following code to style the interface:
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background-color: #f5f5f5;
}
.container {
width: 50%;
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 20px;
background-color: #fff;
border-radius: 5px;
box-shadow: 0 2px 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
h1 {
text-align: center;
}
label {
display: block;
margin-top: 10px;
}
input {
margin-bottom: 10px;
padding: 5px;
width: 100%;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
button {
padding: 10px;
width: 100%;
background-color: #007bff;
border: none;
color: #fff;
cursor: pointer;
}
button:hover {
background-color: #0056b3;
}
#password {
margin-top: 20px;
font-size: 1.5em;
}This CSS code styles the password generator interface with a clean and modern look using basic styling properties. Feel free to customize the styles to match your project’s design requirements.
Now, let’s move on to the JavaScript part of the project. Create a JavaScript file named script.js and add the following code:
const lowercaseChars = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz';
const uppercaseChars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
const numberChars = '0123456789';
const specialChars = '!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:,.<>?';
function generatePassword() {
const length = document.getElementById('length').value;
const includeLowercase = document.getElementById('includeLowercase').checked;
const includeUppercase = document.getElementById('includeUppercase').checked;
const includeNumbers = document.getElementById('includeNumbers').checked;
const includeSpecialChars = document.getElementById('includeSpecialChars').checked;
let charset = '';
if (includeLowercase) {
charset += lowercaseChars;
}
if (includeUppercase) {
charset += uppercaseChars;
}
if (includeNumbers) {
charset += numberChars;
}
if (includeSpecialChars) {
charset += specialChars;
}
let password = '';
for (let i = 0; i < length; i++) {
password += charset.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * charset.length));
}
document.getElementById('password').innerHTML = password;
}This JavaScript code defines the character sets for lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters. The generatePassword() function retrieves the user’s input for password length and selected character sets. It then creates a password by randomly selecting characters from the chosen character sets based on the user’s criteria.
Finally, make sure to place the API key in a safe and secure place in your project files. You can utilize environment variables or other secure methods to keep the API key protected.
That’s it! You have now created a working JavaScript password generator using ChatGPT. Test the generator by opening the HTML file in a web browser and generating passwords based on your desired criteria. Feel free to customize the code further to add more features or improve the user experience. Happy coding!
Use “continue” to make ChatGPT send more info if it got to the limit
Same as searching on Google then
I asked it to code a discord bott never tested the code but it seemed somewhat decent.
There is a box for special chars the elements just got wrapped weirdly
Woah cool
