@jimkang/randomid v1.1.0

randomid

This module generates random ids that can be safely used as DOM element ids.

Installation

npm install @jimkang/randomid

For use as command line util: npm install -g @jimkang/randomid

Usage

As module:

var RandomId = require('@jimkang/randomid'); var randomId = RandomId(); var id = randomId(10);

Here's an example.

If you want to use your own random function (for example, one that uses a specific seed for reproducible results), you can provide it in the constructor:

var RandomId = require('@jimkang/randomid');
var seedrandom = require('seedrandom');
var randomId = RandomId({ random: seedrandom('test') });

If you don't provide a random option, it will just use Math.random for the random function.

As command line util:

randomid 5

(Then, it will produce a five-character id.)

Tests

Run tests with make test.
