具有上面讨论的一些函数的类。

$options['numeric'] = true;
$options['uppercase'] = true;
$options['lowercase'] = true;
$new = new RandomString($options);

class RandomString
{
    /**
     * @var array
     */
    private $default = ['numeric' => true, 'uppercase' => true, 'lowercase' => true];

    /**
     * @var array
     */
    private $options;

    /**
     * array
     */
    private $whitelist = ['numeric', 'uppercase', 'lowercase'];

    /**
     * RandomString constructor.
     *
     * @param array $options
     */
    public function __construct(array $options = [])
    {
        $this->options = $this->default;
        if(!empty($options))
        {
            $options = array_intersect_key($options, array_flip($this->whitelist));
            if(empty($options))
            {
                $this->options = $this->default;
            }else
            {
                $this->options = $options;
            }
        }
    }

    /**
     * @return string
     */
    private function returnCharacters(){

        $options = $this->options;

        $numbers = '0123456789';
        $uppercase = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
        $lowercase = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";

        $characters = '';
        if(isset($options['numeric']) && $options['numeric'] === true){
            $characters .= $numbers;
        }

        if(isset($options['uppercase']) && $options['uppercase'] === true){
            $characters .= $uppercase;
        }

        if(isset($options['lowercase']) && $options['lowercase'] === true){
            $characters .= $lowercase;
        }
        return $characters;
    }

    /**
     * @param $length
     * @param $quantity
     * @return string
     */
    public function randomString($length, $quantity) {

        $string = '';
        $characters = $this->returnCharacters();

        for ($j = 0; $j < $quantity; $j++) {
            for($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++){
                $string .= $characters[mt_rand(0, strlen($characters) - 1)];
            }
            $string .= "\n";
        }
        return $string;
    }

    /**
     * @return array
     */
    public function getOptions()
    {
        return $this->options;
    }

    /**
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function getWhitelist()
    {
        return $this->whitelist;
    }

在这种方法中，您可以在创建时选择字符长度。

<?php
    $random_string = "";
    $character_count = 12;
    for($i=1; $i <= $character_count; $i++)
    {
        $random_string .= chr(rand(97, 122));
    }
    echo $random_string;
?>

如果你需要大量无重复的随机字符串，这里有一个经过小修改的递归代码:

function generateRandomString($length = 10)
{
    global $generatedStrings;
    $characters = '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
    $randomString = '';
    for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i++) {
        $randomString .= $characters[rand(0, strlen($characters) - 1)];
    }
    if (isset($generatedStrings[$randomString])) {
        $randomString = generateRandomString($length);
    }
    $generatedStrings[$randomString] = $randomString;
    return $randomString;
}

$generatedStrings = array();

foreach(range(1, 100000) as $num) {
    echo "\n".$num."\t : ".generateRandomString();
}

来自yii2框架

/**
 * Generates a random string of specified length.
 * The string generated matches [A-Za-z0-9_-]+ and is transparent to URL-encoding.
 *
 * @param int $length the length of the key in characters
 * @return string the generated random key
 */

function generateRandomString($length = 10) {
    $bytes = random_bytes($length);
    return substr(strtr(base64_encode($bytes), '+/', '-_'), 0, $length);
}

使用random_bytes函数生成加密安全的随机字节。

$bytes = random_bytes(16);
echo bin2hex($bytes);

可能的输出

da821217e61e33ed4b2dd96f8439056c

使用openssl_random_pseudo_bytes函数生成伪随机字节。

$bytes = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(16);
echo bin2hex($bytes);

可能的输出

e2d1254506fbb6cd842cd640333214ad

最好的用例是

function getRandomBytes($length = 16)
{
    if (function_exists('random_bytes')) {
        $bytes = random_bytes($length / 2);
    } else {
        $bytes = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($length / 2);
    }
    return bin2hex($bytes);
}
echo getRandomBytes();

可能的输出

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。
