Symfony2 custom Password Encoder (bcrypt)

Question

I\'ve written my own password encoder which implements the PasswordEncoderInterface:

class BCryptPasswordEncoder implements PasswordEncoderInterface         


        

Answer 1

Starting from Symfony 2.2, BCrypt is natively supported, so you can configure it easily as such:

security:
    encoders:
        Symfony\Component\Security\Core\User\User:
            algorithm: bcrypt
            cost: 7

You may want to adjust the cost upwards if you have a fast enough server though.
