Customizable Password Strength Meter With jQuery And zxcvbn.js - strengthify

Just another password strength meter plugin which provides visual feedback (indicator bar, text message and tooltip) to display the strength of the password using the dropbox's zxcvbn library.

Basic usage:

1. Add jQuery library and the jQuery strengthify plugin's files into your webpage.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="strengthify.css">
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="jquery.strengthify.js"></script>

2. Just call the function on the password field and specify the path to the zxcvbn library and we're done.

$('.password-field').strengthify({
  zxcvbn: '/path/to/zxcvbn.js'
})

3. Config the password strength meter with the following options.

$('.password-field').strengthify({

  // an array of strings that zxcvbn will treat as an extra dictionary
  userInputs: [],

  // messages displayed in the tooltip
  titles: [
    'Weakest',
    'Weak',
    'So-so',
    'Good',
    'Perfect'
  ],

  // choose now between tooltip and element or both
  tilesOptions:{
    tooltip: true,
    element: false
  },

  // display tooltips
  drawTitles: false,

  // display text messages
  drawMessage: false,

  // display strenth indicator bars
  drawBars: true,

  // element after which the strengthify element should be inserted
  $addAfter: null,

  // a nonce that is added to the `<script>` tag to load the zxcvbn.js file asynchronously
  nonce: null
  
})
