如何使用php为htpasswd文件生成密码

Question

Hi how can i generate a password using php, to use for the htpasswrd file. which encoding we are using?

Answer 1

It's better to delegate to the htpasswd app with system() and the like rather than to roll your own.

Also consider using a database and mod_auth_mysql or similar for auth.

Answer 2

here the link

http://www.htaccesstools.com/articles/create-password-for-htpasswd-file-using-php/

<?php
// Password to be encrypted for a .htpasswd file
$clearTextPassword = 'some password';

// Encrypt password
$password = crypt($clearTextPassword, base64_encode($clearTextPassword));

// Print encrypted password
echo $password;
?>

Please note: For Apache servers running on Windows you have to use the htpasswd program to generate passwords, or use the htpasswd generator.

Answer 3

This worked for me.

$new_password = password_hash($old_password, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);

password_hash() creates a new password hash using a strong one-way hashing algorithm. password_hash() is compatible with crypt(). Therefore, password hashes created by crypt() can be used with password_hash().

(...)

PASSWORD_BCRYPT - Use the CRYPT_BLOWFISH algorithm to create the hash. This will produce a standard crypt() compatible hash using the "$2y$" identifier. The result will always be a 60 character string, or FALSE on failure. Supported Options:
