= Go Password Masker

image:https://travis-ci.org/noamt/password-masker.svg?branch=master["Build Status", link="https://travis-ci.org/noamt/password-masker"]

A library that helps you mask passwords within strings.

It identifies common password patterns such as:

`password: abcdef123456789`

`pass=abcdef123456789`

and

```

password:

    abcdef123456789

```

And replaces them with `\****`:

```

password:

    ****

```

== Usage

To mask a password within a string:

```

containsPass := "password: nonofyourbusiness"

masked := mask.Password(containsPass)

println(masked) // password: ****

```

You can also select your own mask:

```

containsPass := "password: nonofyourbusiness"

masked := mask.Password(containsPass, "????")

println(masked) // password: ????

```
