一个完整的解决方案(课程加测试)，部分基于上面的一些建议…

class TokenFactory
{
    private const LENGTH = 12;
    private const ALLOWED = '123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZ~!@#$%^&*{}';

    public function make(): string
    {
        $pass = $this->generateToken();

        if ($this->isTokenValid($pass)) {
            return $pass;
        } else {
            return $this->make();
        }
    }

    /**

    private function generateToken(): string
    {
        $allowedCharacters = self::ALLOWED;
        $token              = '';
        $max               = mb_strlen($allowedCharacters, '8bit') - 1;
        for ($i = 0; $i < self::LENGTH; ++$i) {
            $token .= $allowedCharacters[random_int(0, $max)];
        }
        return $token;
    }

    /**
     * @param $token

        $numberOfCaps     = preg_match_all("/[A-Z]/", $token);
        $numberOfSpecials = preg_match_all("/[~!@#\$%^&*{}]/", $token);
        $numberOfLetters  = preg_match_all("/[a-z]/", $token);

        return
            $numberOfDigits > self::MIN_NUMBER_OF_DIGITS

            ;
    }
}

class TokenFactoryTest
{
    public function test_correct_syntax()
    {
        /**
         * Arrange
         */
        $length = 12;
        $numberOfChecks = 1000;

        /**
         * Act & Assert
         */
        $class = new TokenFactory();

        $i = 0;
        while ($i < $numberOfChecks) {
            $generatedToken = $class->make();

            $numberOfDigits = preg_match_all( "/[0-9]/", $generatedToken );
            $numberOfCaps = preg_match_all( "/[A-Z]/", $generatedToken );
            $numberOfSpecials   = preg_match_all("/[~!@#\$%^&*{}]/", $generatedToken);
            $numberOfLetters   = preg_match_all("/[a-z]/", $generatedToken);

            Assert::assertEquals($length, strlen($generatedToken));
            Assert::assertTrue($numberOfDigits >= 1, 'Digit error: ' . $generatedToken);
            Assert::assertTrue($numberOfCaps >= 1, 'Caps error: ' . $generatedToken);
            Assert::assertTrue($numberOfSpecials >= 1, 'Specials error: ' . $generatedToken);
            Assert::assertTrue($numberOfLetters >= 1, 'Letters error: ' . $generatedToken);

            $i++;
        }
    }
}

顺便说一句，请确保在适合您需要的地方捕获该异常!

试试这个:

function generate_name ($length = LENGTH_IMG_PATH) {
    $image_name = "";
    $possible = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";

    $i = 0;

    while ($i < $length) {

        $char = substr($possible, mt_rand(0, strlen($possible)-1), 1);

        if (!strstr($image_name, $char)) {
            $image_name .= $char;
            $i++;
        }
    }
    return $image_name;
}

实现这个函数的更好方法是:

function RandomString($length) {
    $keys = array_merge(range(0,9), range('a', 'z'));

    $key = "";
    for($i=0; $i < $length; $i++) {
        $key .= $keys[mt_rand(0, count($keys) - 1)];
    }
    return $key;
}

echo RandomString(20);

mt_rand在PHP 7中更加随机。rand函数是mt_rand的别名。

这将创建一个20个字符的十六进制字符串:

$string = bin2hex(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(10)); // 20 chars

在PHP 7 (random_bytes())中:

$string = base64_encode(random_bytes(10)); // ~14 characters, includes /=+
// or
$string = substr(str_replace(['+', '/', '='], '', base64_encode(random_bytes(32))), 0, 32); // 32 characters, without /=+
// or
$string = bin2hex(random_bytes(10)); // 20 characters, only 0-9a-f

PHP生成随机字符的函数

这个PHP函数为我工作:

function cvf_ps_generate_random_code($length=10) {

   $string = '';
   // You can define your own characters here.
   $characters = "23456789ABCDEFHJKLMNPRTVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";

   for ($p = 0; $p < $length; $p++) {
       $string .= $characters[mt_rand(0, strlen($characters)-1)];
   }

   return $string;

}

用法:

echo cvf_ps_generate_random_code(5);

Laravel 5框架中的辅助函数

/**
 * Generate a "random" alpha-numeric string.
 *
 * Should not be considered sufficient for cryptography, etc.
 *
 * @param  int  $length
 * @return string
 */
function str_random($length = 16)
{
    $pool = '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';

    return substr(str_shuffle(str_repeat($pool, $length)), 0, $length);
}
