The rockyou.txt file is way to big to include here, but I've included phpbb.txt.\n\nI used the following files from it:\n* phpbb.txt\n* rockyou.txt\n\nThe common word dictionary I grabbed from my bud's over at [Pybites](https://pybit.es/). I've also included it:\n* [dictionary,txt](http://bit.ly/2iQ3dlZ)\n\n## How To Install\nI highly recommend that you keep your system's Python installation clean and use a virtual environment. Once you are ready to install the script, clone the repository and then install it with pip:\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/clamytoe/Password-Validate.git\ncd Password-Validate\npip install -e .\n```\n\n## How To Use\nOnce the script has been installed, simply run with `passwd_validate`.\nOn the initial run, the script will prompt you for the following data:\n\n* First and Last name\n* Company username\n\nThe information will be stored locally in a file json text file. I was going to add it to a sqlite database file but I felt that it would be overkill for this little program. The information is only used in order to make it easier for the user to try out new passwords without having to constantly re-enter the above information.\n\nOnce that's collected, it will prompt you for a password. If it's valid, it will ask you to confirm it. If those two checks pass, it will then ask if you want to store it. The hash of the password, **NOT** the password itself, will be added to the json file along with a datetime timestamp. When the program is ran again, it will check the timestamp of the stored hash if the hashes match. If they do, it will only validate the password if it's not being reused within the same year.\n\nIf the password that you enter doesn't pass the validation, it will inform you of why it failed and ask you to enter another one until a valid one is used.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fclamytoe%2Fpassword-validate","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fclamytoe%2Fpassword-validate","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fclamytoe%2Fpassword-validate/lists"}
