seed-bytes
A seedable random byte generator. The algorithms available are not cryptographically secure!
Get it!
npm install --save seed-bytes
Usage
var seed = require('seed-bytes')
var next = seed('sesame open')
next() // a single byte
next(419) // n bytes at once, as a buffer
API
var next = seed(init[, algo])
Create a new random byte generator. init
can be of any type. Set the algorithm for the internal random number generator with algo
, defaults to 'alea'
. Check out seedrandom
for a list of supported algorithms. None of those are cryptographically secure.
next([n])
Get the next byte or the next n
bytes in a buffer.
