ABSTRACT

The objective of this project is to create a password generator using python. The password
generator project will be build using python modules like Tkinter, random, string, pyperclip.
In this project, the user has to select the password length and then click on the “Generate
Password” button. It will show the generated password below. If the user clicks on the “Copy
To Clipboard” button, then it will copy the password automatically.

A random password generator is software program or hardware device that takes input from a
random or pseudo-random number generator and automatically generates a password.
Random passwords can be generated manually, using simple sources of randomness such as
dice or coins, or they can be generated using a computer.

While there are many examples of "random" password generator programs available on the
Internet, generating randomness can be tricky and many programs do not generate random
characters in a way that ensures strong security. A common recommendation is to use open
source security tools where possible since they allow independent checks on the quality of
the methods used. Note that simply generating a password at random does not ensure the
password is a strong password, because it is possible, although highly unlikely, to generate an
easily guessed or cracked password. In fact, there is no need at all for a password to have
been produced by a perfectly random process: it just needs to be sufficiently difficult to
guess.

INTRODUCTION

A password generator can be part of a password manager. When a password policy enforces
complex rules, it can be easier to use a password generator based on that set of rules than to
manually create passwords.

Long strings of random characters are difficult for most people to memorize. Mnemonic
hashes, which reversibly convert random strings into more memorable passwords, can
substantially improve the ease of memorization. As the hash can be processed by a computer
to recover the original 60-bit string, it has at least as much information content as the original
string.[1] Similar techniques are used in memory sport.
Password Generator is written in Python using Tkinter for GUI. The project file contains
python scripts (main.py and pwgenfunc.py). This is a simple GUI based project which is very
easy to understand and use. Talking about the system, the user can generate a random
password according to different sizes. In order to generate a password first, the user has to
select a size range using the slider. It also displays with a visual color-coded system which
indicates the strength of the password, starting from Very Weak to Excellent password
strength. After generating a random password, the system displays it in the clipboard where
the user can copy and paste easily.

This GUI based Password Generator provides the simplest way for generating a strong
password for the users. In short, this project only focuses on generating random passwords.
In order to run the project, you must have installed Python, on your PC. This is a simple GUI
Based system, specially written for the beginners. Password Generator in Python with
source code is free to download. Use for education purpose only! For the project demo,
have a look at the image slider below.

Features:

Select password size

With growing technology, everything has relied on data and securing these data is the main
concern. Passwords are meant to keep the data safe that we upload on the Internet.
An easy password can be hacked easily and all the personal information can be misused. In
order to prevent such things and keep the data safe, it is quite necessary to keep our
passwords very strong.
Let’s create a simple application which can randomly generate strong passwords using
Python Tkinter module.
This application can generate random password, with the combination of letters, numerics,
and special characters. One can mention length of the password based on requirement and
can also select the strength of the password.

Project Prerequisites

To build this project we will use the basic concept of python and libraries – Tkinter,
pyperclip, random, string.

Tkinter is a standard GUI library and is one of the easiest ways to build a GUI application.

pyperclip module allows us to copy and paste text to and from the clipboard to your computer

The random module can generate random numbers

string module contains a number of functions to process the standard python string.

To install the libraries we can use pip installer from the command line:

pip install tkinter

pip install pyperclip

pip install random

pip install strings

Project File Structure

Let’s check the step to build a Password Generator using Python

Import modules

Initialized Window

Select Password Length

Define Functions

Steps to create random password generator

1. Import Libraries

The first step is to import libraries

from tkinter import *

import random, string

import pyperclip

2. Initialize Window

root = Tk()

root.geometry("400x400")

root.resizable(0,0)

root.title("DataFlair - PASSWORD GENERATOR")

Tk() initialized tkinter which means window created

geometry() set the width and height of the window

resizable(0,0) set the fixed size of the window

title() set the title of the window.

Label(root, text = 'PASSWORD GENERATOR' , font ='arial 15 bold').pack()

Label(root, text ='DataFlair', font ='arial 15 bold').pack(side = BOTTOM)

Label() widget use to display one or more than one line of text that users can’t able to
modify.

root is the name which we refer to our window

text which we display on the label

font in which the text is written

pack organized widget in block

3. Select Password Length

pass_label = Label(root, text = 'PASSWORD LENGTH', font = 'arial 10 bold').pack()

pass_len = IntVar()

length = Spinbox(root, from_ = 8, to_ = 32 , textvariable = pass_len , width = 15).pack()

pass_len is an integer type variable that stores the length of a password.

To select the password length we use Spinbox() widget.

Spinbox() widget is used to select from a fixed number of values. Here the value from 8
to 32

4. Function to Generate Password

pass_str = StringVar()

def Generator():

password = ''

for x in range (0,4):

Password = random.choice(string.ascii_uppercase) +
random.choice(string.ascii_lowercase) + random.choice(string.digits) +
random.choice(string.punctuation)

for y in range(pass_len.get()- 4):

 password = password + random.choice(string.ascii_uppercase +
string.ascii_lowercase + string.digits + string.punctuation)

pass_str.set(password)

pass_str is a string type variable that stores the generated password

password = “” is the empty string

First loop will generate a string of length 4 which is a combination of an uppercase

letter, a lowercase letter, digits, and a special symbol and that string will store in
password variable.

The second loop will generate a random string of length entered by the user – 4 and add
to the password variable. Here we minus 4 to the length of the user because we already
generate the string of length 4.

We have done this because we want a password which must contain an uppercase, a
lowercase, a digit, and a special symbol.

Now the password is set to the pass_str() variable.Button(root, text = "GENERATE

PASSWORD" , command = Generator ).pack(pady= 5)

Entry(root , textvariable = pass_str).pack()

Button() widget used to display button on our window

command is called when the button is click

Entry() widget used to create an input text field

textvariable used to retrieve the current text to the entry widget

5. Function to Copy Password

 def Copy_password():

pyperclip.copy(pass_str.get())

Button(root, text = 'COPY TO CLIPBOARD', command =

Copy_password).pack(pady=5)

pyperclip.copy() used to copy the text to clipboard

Python Password Generator Output

SOURCE CODE

# Python program to generate random

# password using Tkinter module

import random

import pyperclip

from tkinter import *

from tkinter.ttk import *

# Function for calculation of password

def low():

entry.delete(0, END)

# Get the length of password

length = var1.get()

lower = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

upper = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

digits =
"ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789
!@#$%^&*()"

password = ""

# if strength selected is low

if var.get() == 1:

for i in range(0, length):

password = password + random.choice(lower)

return password

# if strength selected is medium

elif var.get() == 0:

for i in range(0, length):

password = password + random.choice(upper)

return password

# if strength selected is strong

 elif var.get() == 3:

for i in range(0, length):

password = password + random.choice(digits)

return password

else:

print("Please choose an option")

# Function for generation of password

def generate():

password1 = low()

entry.insert(10, password1)

# Function for copying password to clipboard

def copy1():

random_password = entry.get()

pyperclip.copy(random_password)

# Main Function

# create GUI window

root = Tk()

var = IntVar()
var1 = IntVar()

# Title of your GUI window

root.title("Random Password Generator")

# create label and entry to show

# password generated

Random_password = Label(root, text="Password")

Random_password.grid(row=0)

entry = Entry(root)

entry.grid(row=0, column=1)

# create label for length of password

c_label = Label(root, text="Length")

c_label.grid(row=1)

copy_button = Button(root, text="Copy", command=copy1)

copy_button.grid(row=0, column=2)

generate_button = Button(root, text="Generate", command=generate)

generate_button.grid(row=0, column=3)

# Radio Buttons for deciding the

# strength of password

# Default strength is Medium

radio_low = Radiobutton(root, text="Low", variable=var, value=1)

radio_low.grid(row=1, column=2, sticky='E')

radio_middle = Radiobutton(root, text="Medium", variable=var, value=0)

radio_middle.grid(row=1, column=3, sticky='E')

radio_strong = Radiobutton(root, text="Strong", variable=var, value=3)

radio_strong.grid(row=1, column=4, sticky='E')

combo = Combobox(root, textvariable=var1)

# Combo Box for length of your password

combo['values'] = (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16,

17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, "Length")

combo.current(0)

combo.bind('<<ComboboxSelected>>')

combo.grid(column=1, row=1)

# start the GUI

root.mainloop()

OUTPUT
CONCLUSION
With these steps, we have successfully created a random password generator project
using python. We used popular tkinter library to rendering graphics in our display
window and we also learned about pyperclip and random library.

We learned how to create buttons, input textfield, labels, and spinbox. In this way, we
successfully created our password generator python project. Hope you enjoyed it.
