Wordice 🎲

Generate random words, or pick some from an array from an array!

Got an array of words and need something randomly selected? Wordice picks a random word (or words) from an array with ease!

Don't have an array, and just need a random word? We got you.

Demo: here

Installation:

yarn add wordice

Usage:

wordice(['Bird', 'Is', 'The', 'Word']); // Your own array
wordice(['Bird', 'Is', 'The', 'Word'], options); // Your own array + options!
wordice(); // Uses a default list of words

Examples:

Default:

import wordice from "wordice";

const myRandomWord = wordice();
console.log(myRandomWord);
// Duck

With your own array:

import wordice from "wordice";

const coolArray = ['This', 'Is', 'An', 'Array', 'Of', 'Words'];
const myRandomWord = wordice(coolArray);
console.log(myRandomWord);
// Of

You can supply options for minimum characters, max characters and amount of words you want returned

Note: If you set wordCount to a greater number of items in the array it will be capped at the length of the array, see allowDuplicates below.

import wordice from "wordice";

const coolArray = ['This', 'Is', 'An', 'Array', 'Of', 'Some', 'More', 'Words'];
const myRandomWords = wordice(coolArray, { minCharacters: 3, maxCharacters: 4, wordCount: 3 });
console.log(myRandomWords);
// More, Some, This

You can change also allow the return of duplicated words, allowing you to set a higher wordCount value than length of the array.

import wordice from "wordice";

const coolArray = ['A', 'B', 'C'];
const myRandomWords = wordice(coolArray, { allowDuplicates: true,　wordCount: ５ });
console.log(myRandomWords);
// C,B,C,A,A

You can change the joining character between items

import wordice from "wordice";

const coolArray = ['This', 'Is', 'An', 'Array', 'Of', 'Some', 'More', 'Words'];
const myRandomWords = wordice(coolArray, { join: '-' wordCount: 3 });
console.log(myRandomWords);
// Words-Some-This
