codeid

A dead simple, random 8-character, universal "New Unique ID" string generator, using uppercase letters and numbers that don't look alike. A.K.A., UUIDs FOR HUMANS.

From the console (Nodejs >= 8.3.0 required)

morpheus:codeid carlos8f$ npx codeid
KGAFJVWR
morpheus:codeid carlos8f$ npx codeid
YHT3DTAW

ETC.

Node.js interface

First install it as a dep in your project:

$ npm install --save codeid

Then call it as a function to get a new ID:

var newid = require('codeid')()
console.log('newid', newid)

Output:

newid NJNLEL7H

Happy hashing ;)

Cheers, Carlos
