> A tiny (190B) and [extremely fast](#benchmarks) utility to generate random IDs of fixed length
|
||
|
|
||
|
_**Hexadecimal object IDs.** Available for Node.js and the browser._<br>Generate randomized output strings of fixed length using lowercased hexadecimal pairs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> **Notice:** Please note that this is not a cryptographically secure (CSPRNG) generator.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Additionally, this module is delivered as:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* **CommonJS**: [`dist/index.js`](https://unpkg.com/hexoid/dist/index.js)
|
||
|
* **ES Module**: [`dist/index.mjs`](https://unpkg.com/hexoid/dist/index.mjs)
|
||
|
* **UMD**: [`dist/index.min.js`](https://unpkg.com/hexoid/dist/index.min.js)
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Install
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
$ npm install --save hexoid
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
import hexoid from 'hexoid';
|
||
|
|
||
|
const toID = hexoid();
|
||
|
// length = 16 (default)
|
||
|
toID(); //=> '52032fedb951da00'
|
||
|
toID(); //=> '52032fedb951da01'
|
||
|
toID(); //=> '52032fedb951da02'
|
||
|
|
||
|
// customize length
|
||
|
hexoid(25)(); //=> '065359875047c63a037200e00'
|
||
|
hexoid(32)(); //=> 'ca8e4aec7f139d94fcab9cab2eb89f00'
|
||
|
hexoid(48)(); //=> 'c19a4deb5cdeca68534930e67bd0a2f4ed45988724d8d200'
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## API
|
||
|
|
||
|
### hexoid(length?)
|
||
|
Returns: `() => string`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Creates the function that will generate strings.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### length
|
||
|
Type: `Number`<br>
|
||
|
Default: `16`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then length of the output string.
|
||
|
|
||
|
> **Important:** Your risk of collisions decreases with longer strings!<br>Please be aware of the [Birthday Problem](https://betterexplained.com/articles/understanding-the-birthday-paradox/)! You may need more combinations than you'd expect.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The **maximum combinations** are known given the following formula:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
const combos = 256 ** (len/2);
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
