uuid-sequential v1.1.0
uuid
UUIDS generator for databases.
It’s good to generate GUIDs for databases, since variability increases from start to end of line, unlike other wyd generators in which variability decreases from start to end of line.
For example this lib will generate:
- 4c32758b-96ff-614a-b969-9b4a4a731347
- 4c32758b-96ff-fe7a-b969-282491172654
- 4c32758b-96ff-bca2-b977-c2bc3ab41fd4
And other libs in most cases will generates:
- b097b7e3-d0fa-4c87-8e7e-1cbcadc25705
- 64827630-3868-4252-afb8-aea4e0eb96ef
- 1ee972b5-5812-4091-9d47-7b852f21d0bf
Features:
- Good for database UUID gengeration.
- UUID sequence variability increases from start to end.
- Uses cryptographically-strong random number APIs (when available)
- Works in Node and Browser
Quickstart - CommonJS (Recommended)
npm install uuid-sequential
Then generate your uuid...
const uuid = require('uuid-sequential');
uuid(); // ⇨ '4c32758b-96ff-614a-b969-9b4a4a731347'
uuid(); // ⇨ '4c32758b-96ff-fe7a-b969-282491172654'
uuid(); // ⇨ '4c32758b-96ff-bca2-b977-c2bc3ab41fd4'
