make()

make(string  $password, integer  $algo = PASSWORD_BCRYPT, array  $options = array()) : string|false

Hash the password using the specified algorithm

Parameters

string $password

The password to hash

integer $algo

The algorithm to use (Defined by PASSWORD_* constants)

array $options

The options for the algorithm to use

Returns

string|false —

The hashed password, or false on error.

password_get_info()

password_get_info(string  $hash) : array

Get information about the password hash. Returns an array of the information that was used to generate the password hash.

array( 'algo' => 1, 'algoName' => 'bcrypt', 'options' => array( 'cost' => 10, ), )

Parameters

string $hash

The password hash to extract info from

Returns

array —

The array of information about the hash.

needs_rehash()

needs_rehash(string  $hash, integer  $algo = PASSWORD_BCRYPT, array  $options = array()) : boolean

Determine if the password hash needs to be rehashed according to the options provided

If the answer is true, after validating the password using password_verify, rehash it.

Parameters

string $hash

The hash to test

integer $algo

The algorithm used for new password hashes

array $options

The options array passed to password_hash

Returns

boolean —
