Description Christoph Feck 2014-10-27 13:17:49 UTC
The --password option allows entering a password, but KWidgetsAddons additionally has a KNewPasswordDialog, allowing the user to enter a new password (with two entry boxes for verification, and a strength meter).

Maybe allow parameters to pass a recommended password length, or even a minimum password length.

'Minimum password length' and 'recommended password length' in KNewPasswordDialog

I suppose it is necessary to add 'minimum password length' and 'recommended password length' options, so some changes were made in the knewpassworddialog.cpp. Attached patch knewpassworddialog_cpp.diff applies to the file kwidgetsaddons/src/knewpassworddialog.cpp.

I am curious where to download the code, and where to submit and so forth. It is my second day on here. I don't quite know how the process works. I was looking for projects to contribute to and got directed here.

Comment 18 Burkhard Lück 2017-07-26 02:34:21 UTC
There was a RR https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/126204/ which was marked as submitted by aacid, but this option is still missing
Comment 19 Christoph Feck 2017-07-31 22:26:58 UTC
It was not committed, and the code got lost, so this is still open for adoption. Submissions go to https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/diff/create/
