NAME

       Data::Password::zxcvbn::Match::Date - match class for digit sequences that look like dates

VERSION

       version 1.1.2

DESCRIPTION

       This class represents the guess that a certain substring of a password, consisting of digits and maybe
       separators, can be guessed by scanning dates in the recent past (like birthdays, or recent events).

ATTRIBUTES

   "year"
       Integer, the year extracted from the token.

   "separator"
       String, possibly empty: the separator used between digits in the token.

METHODS

   "estimate_guesses"
       The number of guesses is the number of days between the extracted "year" and a reference year (currently
       2017), multiplied by the possible separators.

   "make"
         my @matches = @{ Data::Password::zxcvbn::Match::Date->make(
           $password,
         ) };

       Scans the $password for sequences of digits and separators that look like dates. Some examples:

       •   1/1/91

       •   1191

       •   1991-01-01

       •   910101

   "feedback_warning"
   "feedback_suggestions"
       This class suggests not using dates.

   "fields_for_json"
       The  JSON  serialisation  for  matches  of  this class will contain "token i j guesses guesses_log10 year
       separator".
