crypto-randomuuid
This is a polyfill for the crypto.randomUUID
method in Node.js. It will use
the built-in version, if present. There are plenty of other uuid modules, but
this one aims to be as functionally identical as possible to the Node.js core
function.
This uses a pure JavaScript replacement of the secureBuffer
function using
randomFillSync
rather than the native version using OPENSSL_secure_malloc
in Node.js core. This may have security implications, so I'd recommend against
using this anywhere that cryptographically secure uuids are important.
Install
npm install crypto-randomuuid
