The Crypt password provides a set of classes that can be used for encrypting and hashing data.

## Interfaces

### `PasswordInterface`

`PasswordInterface` is an interface that requires a class to be implemented with a create and a verify method.

The create method should take a plain text password and a type and return a hashed password.

The verify method should accept a plain text password and a hashed password and return a boolean indicating whether or not the password matched the password in the hash.

The `PasswordInterface` interface defines the following constants for use with implementations:

- `PasswordInterface::BLOWFISH`
- `PasswordInterface::JOOMLA`
- `PasswordInterface::MD5`
- `PasswordInterface::PBKDF`

## Classes

### `Password\Simple`

#### Usage

In addition to the interface `PasswordInterface` there is also a basic implementation provided which provides for use with the most common password schemes. This if found in the `Password\Simple` class.

Aside from the two methods create and verify methods, this implementation also adds an additional method called setCost. This method is used to set a cost parameter for methods that support workload factors. It takes an integer cost factor as a parameter.

`Password\Simple` provides support for bcrypt, MD5 and the traditional Joomla! CMS hashing scheme. The hash format can be specified during hash creation by using the constants `PasswordInterface::BLOWFISH`, `PasswordInterface::MD5`, `PasswordInterface::JOOMLA`, and `PasswordInterface::PBKDF`. An appropriate salt will be automatically generated when required.

# Installation via Composer
