temp-id

Small library to generate sequential timestamp-based unique ID's

Install

npm i @dev-goodies/temp-id

Getting stared

const tempid = require('@dev-goodies/temp-id');
  or ..
import * as tempid from '@dev-goodies/temp-id';
  or ..
import { UID, Int32UID } from '@dev-goodies/temp-id';

UID()

Produces long unique ids

  const uidSet = new Set<number>();

  for ( let x = 1; x <= 10; x++) {
    uidSet.add(UID());
  }

Sample output from uidSet ..

  Set(10)
  [[Entries]]
  0: 1583287368734
  1: 1583287368737

Int32UID()

Produces signed-32-bit int unique identifiers

  const uid32Set = new Set<number>();

  for ( let x = 1; x <= 10; x++) {
    uid32Set.add(Int32UID());
  }

Sample output from uid32Set ..
