以前的答案会生成不安全或难以输入的密码。

这是安全的，并且提供了用户更有可能实际使用的密码，而不是因为一些薄弱的东西而被丢弃。

Laravel解决方案: 如果你正在使用Laravel框架，你可以像这样使用它的StringHelper。

使用“照亮\支持\斯特”;

Str：：random（$strlentgh = 16）

请尝试这个函数来生成一个自定义的随机字母数字字符串:

<?php
  function random_alphanumeric($length) {
    $chars = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ12345689';
    $my_string = '';
    for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++) {
      $pos = random_int(0, strlen($chars) -1);
      $my_string .= substr($chars, $pos, 1);
    }
    return $my_string;
  }
?>

你可以通过将字符串的长度传递给函数来调整结果，如下所示:

  $test_with_50_items = random_alphanumeric(50); // 50 characters
  echo $test_with_50_items;

示例(test_with_50_items): Y1FypdjVbFCFK6Gh9FDJpe6dciwJEfV6MQGpJqAfuijaYSZ86

如果你需要超过50个字符或更少，只需按你喜欢的方式调用函数:

  $test_with_27_items = random_alphanumeric(27); // 27 characters
  echo $test_with_27_items;

如果你需要两个或更多唯一的字符串，你可以使用while循环，这样你肯定会得到两个唯一的字符串…你可以用更多的弦做同样的事情，唯一的限制是你的幻想……

  $string_1 = random_alphanumeric(50);
  $string_2 = random_alphanumeric(50);
  while ($string_1 == $string_2) {
    $string_1 = random_alphanumeric(50);
    $string_2 = random_alphanumeric(50);
    if ($string_1 != $string_2) {
       break;
    }
  }
  echo $string_1;
  echo "<br>\n";
  echo $string_2;

$string_1： KkvUwia8rbDEV2aChWqm3AgeUZqyrRbUx2AxVhx5s4TSJ2VwA4

$string_2： XraO85YfxBBCInafvwipSOJwLmk6JMWiuWOxYQDnXohcn2D8K6

根据PHP 8.3, random_int()是“默认安全的”

function strgen($len) {
    $buf = '';
    for ($i = 0; $i < $len; $i++) {
        $j = mt_rand(0, 61);
        if ($j >= 36) {
            $j += 13;
        } else if ($j >= 10) {
            $j += 7;
        }
        $buf .= chr(48 + $j);
    }
    return $buf;
}

简单而优雅。

这一个是从管理员来源:

/** Get a random string
* @return string 32 hexadecimal characters
*/
function rand_string() {
    return md5(uniqid(mt_rand(), true));
}
