This repo is under development. Initial LTS release will be 1.0.0, and it should not be used until then. That said...

Generate and return an RFC4122 v1 (time-based) UUID.

options - (Object) Optional:
- node - (Array) Node id; 6 bytes
- clockseq - (Number 0 - 0x3fff) RFC clock sequence
- msecs - (Number | Date) Time in milliseconds since unix Epoch
- nsecs - (Number 0 - 9999) additional time, in 100-nanosecond units
buffer - (Array | Buffer) Array or Buffer where UUID bytes are to be written
offset - (Number) Buffer index at which to begin writing

Returns UUID string (|| buffer if specified)

Example: Generate string UUID with fully-specified options JavaScript

uuid.v1({
  node: [0x01, 0x23, 0x45, 0x67, 0x89, 0xab],
  clockseq: 0x1234,
  msecs: new Date('2011-11-01').getTime(),
  nsecs: 5678
})
