Forgot your password feature for Mouf

This package contains the controllers and services necessary to implement a "forgot your password" feature in Mouf.

Installation

composer require mouf/security.forgot-your-password

Usage

Install the package using the Mouf installer.

This package provides:

  • A controller (ForgotYourPasswordController): this controller provides the default forgot/password route that leads to the "I forgot my password" form. It also provides the forgot/reset route that is linked to in the mail. This route allows the user to reset its password.
  • A service (ForgotYourPasswordService): this service is in charge of generating the unique token and sending the mail.

This package does not contain a way to access your database to store/retrieve tokens and associated users. For this, you need to provide a package implementing the ForgotYourPasswordDao interface. For this, you might want to you an existing package already implementing it. If you are using TDBM, we recommend using mouf/security.daos.tdbm.

Customizing

In this package, the views are based on the Bootstrap framework CSS. If your project uses another framework, you'll need to overwrite the views.

Customizing the "forgot your password" page

The main "forgot your password" form is rendered using the Mouf\Security\Password\ForgotYourPasswordView. The Twig template is available in vendor/mouf/security.forgot-your-password/src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/ForgotYourPasswordView.twig. To overwrite, copy this file to src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/ForgotYourPasswordView.twig and purge your cache.

Customizing the "email sent" page

Once the "forgot your password" page is filled, the user arrives on the "email sent" page.

The page is rendered using the Mouf\Security\Password\EmailSentView. The Twig template is available in vendor/mouf/security.forgot-your-password/src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/EmailSentView.twig. To overwrite, copy this file to src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/EmailSentView.twig and purge your cache.

Customizing the email

The email originates from a SwiftTwigMailTemplate.

If you want to customize this email, you can either:

  • change the Twig template completely (by editing the |forgotYourPasswordMailTemplateinstance in the container and modifying thetwigPath` property to your own file)
  • or you can simply overwrite the i18n strings by providing your own keys for the subject and the body:
    • forgotyourpassword.mail.subject is the subject
    • forgotyourpassword.mail.body is the body of the text

Customizing the "token not found" page

In case the user clicks on a URL link with a token that has already been used (or that is invalid), the "token not found" page is displayed.

The page is rendered using the Mouf\Security\Password\TokenNotFoundView. The Twig template is available in vendor/mouf/security.forgot-your-password/src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/TokenNotFoundView.twig. To overwrite, copy this file to src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/TokenNotFoundView.twig and purge your cache.

Customizing the "reset password" page

When the user clicks on the link in the mail, he is redirected to the "reset password" page.

The page is rendered using the Mouf\Security\Password\ResetPasswordView. The Twig template is available in vendor/mouf/security.forgot-your-password/src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/ResetPasswordView.twig. To overwrite, copy this file to src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/ResetPasswordView.twig and purge your cache.

Customizing the "password reseted" page

This is the last page of the workflow, confirming the password was reset successfully.

The page is rendered using the Mouf\Security\Password\ConfirmResetPasswordView. The Twig template is available in vendor/mouf/security.forgot-your-password/src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/ConfirmResetPasswordView.twig. To overwrite, copy this file to src/templates/Mouf/Security/Password/ConfirmResetPasswordView.twig and purge your cache.

Customizing password check strength

By default when you reset your password, you will be asked a password that is:

  • at least 7 characters long
  • that contains at least one upper case letter
  • that contains at least one lower case letter
  • that contains at least one number

This can be completely configured in the Mouf\Security\Password\PasswordStrengthCheck instance.

Also, if you have very specific needs regarding password strength (for instance: at least 2 special characters, only japanese characters allowed, etc...), then you can simply provide your own service as long as it implements Mouf\Security\Password\Api\PasswordStrengthCheck.
