Pryid

A prefixed Yid (an ID generator).

Yid gives IDs like 1552446552551-6781164698768 which is a timestamp and some random digits.

A prefixed Yid just gives you a generator to create prefixed versions.

The prefix is copied from Stripe (and other online services) such that IDs of a particular type are prefixed with a unique set of letters.

Install

Since pryid has yid as a peerDependency, you must install both:

$ npm install yid pryid
