Password Validator

[Kartstig]

Background

It would be convenient to incorporate a password validator.

Technical Approach

We should check some standard things:

• Length: Minimum 8
• Special Characters: ?
• Numbers: ?

We could allow a parameter to be passed to determine the strength level to check for:

...
|> validate_password(:password, plaintext, :weak)
...

where

  def validate_phone_field(changeset, field, plaintext, strength \\ :strong) do
    ...
  end
