i noticed when attempting to use the API hosted on heroku that the passwords don't match the minimum lenght of characters that I'm giving. I have verified the arguments and they match, but I can't seem to have a constant 16 character string, see the link below:
https://random-pg.herokuapp.com/api/generate?minlen=16&maxlen=16&minuchars=2&minlchars=2&minnumbers=2&minschars=2

and some results:

{"password":"Ek.lf0EOv"}
{"password":"pqWTi5%3&,2.Kt,"}
{"password":"rZPp%BHS7x1QB"}
{"password":"LOyr4qwgX$Csms<G"}
{"password":"a$WJI2"}
{"password":"3A5vqRP^s+d"}
{"password":"Jxz,wkFxb^6"}

The bot created this issue to inform you that pyup.io has been set up on this repo.
Once you have closed it, the bot will open pull requests for updates as soon as they are available.

For dynamic deployment setup, without code changes, it would be useful to have environment variables to define the rules map.

The API and core should be in separate packages.
There is a useless dependency when only core is used.

Front End for the API

It can be simple API using any technologies. Good for people who are learning front end.

Introducing API for random password generator

zsdvad

Should say Min. Special chars

It says Min. Specia chars

random is not secure. urandom is considered cryptographically secure for use in generating password.

            from os import urandom
            pwd = (
                self.allowed_chars[ord(urandom(1)) % len(self.allowed_chars)]
                for i in range(length))

To Reproduce:

• Open the App.
• Change the value of any filter to zero "0" and click generate.
• The value is not generated or the generated value is correct.

Hu

As this is generating passwords, the documentation for random suggests not using it for security and etc, instead they suggest using the secrets module for that.
