RandomString

class RandomString : KotlinCustomResource

The resource random.RandomString generates a random permutation of alphanumeric characters and optionally special characters. This resource does use a cryptographic random number generator. Historically this resource's intended usage has been ambiguous as the original example used it in a password. For backwards compatibility it will continue to exist. For unique ids please use random_id, for sensitive random values please use random_password.

Example Usage

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as random from "@pulumi/random";
const random = new random.RandomString("random", {
length: 16,
special: true,
overrideSpecial: "/@£$",
});
import pulumi
import pulumi_random as random
random = random.RandomString("random",
length=16,
special=True,
override_special="/@£$")
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Pulumi;
using Random = Pulumi.Random;
return await Deployment.RunAsync(() =>
{
var random = new Random.RandomString("random", new()
{
Length = 16,
Special = true,
OverrideSpecial = "/@£$",
});
});

_, err := random.NewRandomString(ctx, "random", &random.RandomStringArgs{
Length: pulumi.Int(16),
Special: pulumi.Bool(true),
OverrideSpecial: pulumi.String("/@£$"),
})
if err != nil {

Import

You can import external strings into your Pulumi programs as RandomString resources as follows:

$ import random:index/randomString:RandomString newString myspecialdata
<break>```
This command will encode the `myspecialdata` token in Pulumi state and generate a code suggestion to
include a new RandomString resource in your Pulumi program. Include the suggested code and do a
`pulumi up`. Your data is now stored in Pulumi, and you can reference it in your Pulumi program as
`newString.result`.
If the data needs to be stored securily as a secret, consider using the RandomPassword resource
instead.

Properties

val id: Output<String>
Link copied to clipboard
val keepers: Output<Map<String, String>>?

Arbitrary map of values that, when changed, will trigger recreation of resource. See the main provider documentation for more information.

Link copied to clipboard
val length: Output<Int>

The length of the string desired. The minimum value for length is 1 and, length must also be >= (min_upper + min_lower + min_numeric + min_special).

Link copied to clipboard
val lower: Output<Boolean>

Include lowercase alphabet characters in the result. Default value is true.

Link copied to clipboard
val minLower: Output<Int>

Minimum number of lowercase alphabet characters in the result. Default value is 0.

Link copied to clipboard
val minNumeric: Output<Int>

Minimum number of numeric characters in the result. Default value is 0.

Link copied to clipboard
val minSpecial: Output<Int>

Minimum number of special characters in the result. Default value is 0.

Link copied to clipboard
val minUpper: Output<Int>

Minimum number of uppercase alphabet characters in the result. Default value is 0.

Link copied to clipboard
val number: Output<Boolean>

Include numeric characters in the result. Default value is true. If number, upper, lower, and special are all configured, at least one of them must be set to true. NOTE: This is deprecated, use numeric instead.

Link copied to clipboard
val numeric: Output<Boolean>

Include numeric characters in the result. Default value is true. If numeric, upper, lower, and special are all configured, at least one of them must be set to true.

Link copied to clipboard
val overrideSpecial: Output<String>?

Supply your own list of special characters to use for string generation. This overrides the default character list in the special argument. The special argument must still be set to true for any overwritten characters to be used in generation.

val result: Output<String>

The generated random string.

Link copied to clipboard
val special: Output<Boolean>

Include special characters in the result. These are !@#$%&*()-_=+[]{}<>:?. Default value is true.
