NAME

       Data::Password::zxcvbn::Match::Repeat - match class for repetitions of other matches

VERSION

       version 1.0.6

DESCRIPTION

       This class represents the guess that a certain substring of a password is a repetition of
       some other kind of match.

ATTRIBUTES

   "repeat_count"
       integer, how many time the ""base_token"" is repeated

   "base_token"
       the match that is repeated; this will be an instance of some other
       "Data::Password::zxcvbn::Match::*" class

   "base_guesses"
       the minimal estimate of the attempts needed to guess the ""base_token""

   "base_matches"
       the list of patterns that ""base_guesses"" is based on

METHODS

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

       Scans the $password for repeated substrings, then recursively analyses them like the main
       "password_strength" function would do:

         password_strength($substring,\%opts);

       ""base_guesses"" and ""base_matches"" come from that recursive call.

   "estimate_guesses"
       The number of guesses is the ""base_guesses"" times the ""repeat_count"".

   "feedback_warning"
   "feedback_suggestions"
       This class suggests not to repeat substrings.

   "fields_for_json"
       The JSON serialisation for matches of this class will contain "token i j guesses
       guesses_log10 repeat_count base_guesses base_token base_matches".
