How to generate a .htpasswd password with PHP?!

PHP, , ,

This worked for me.

$new_password = password_hash($old_password, PASSWORD_BCRYPT);

password_hash() creates a new password hash using a strong one-way hashing algorithm. password_hash() is compatible with crypt().
Therefore, password hashes created by crypt() can be used with password_hash().

PASSWORD_BCRYPT – Use the CRYPT_BLOWFISH algorithm to create the hash.
This will produce a standard crypt() compatible hash using the “$2y$” identifier. The result will always be a 60 character string, or FALSE on failure. Supported Options:

Remove Apache 2.4 version signature @ Ubuntu 15.04

atom.io – toggle tree view and remote-ftp

Sh*ts,

I’m using atom.io for a days now…
It’s awesome BUT it has some small UX problems that need to be fixed.

screenshot-main-f609d95c29e5190787970f8c83762fcb

OK!, the two problems that I’v faced and how I managed to solve them – they are basically the same -.

Tree view from atom.io and remote tree-view from remote-ftp weren’t opening some times.

The solution is easy!, we need to have a project open on the current atom.io window.

If we trying to save a remote file, with remote-ftp, and we don’t have permissions to do it, no error is returned… :/
