Set of utilities to work with UUID

npm i @aminzer/uuid

import uuid, { isValid } from '@aminzer/uuid';

const someUuid = uuid();
console.log(`${someUuid} is UUID: ${isValid(someUuid)}`);

const notUuid = 'abc';
console.log(`${notUuid} is UUID: ${isValid(notUuid)}`);

uuid

uuid generates random UUID string.

import uuid from '@aminzer/uuid';

console.log(uuid());

• options (object, optional):
  • hyphens (boolean, optional, true by default) - should generated string have UUID hyphen-separators or not.

Generated UUID string.

generate

Named alias of default export of the module. Following statements import the same function:

import uuid from '@aminzer/uuid';
import { generate } from '@aminzer/uuid';

generateBytes

generateBytes generates Uint8Array with UUID content.

import { generateBytes } from '@aminzer/uuid';

console.log(generateBytes());

Uint8Array with generated UUID content.

isValid

isValid checks if passed string has UUID format.

import { isValid } from '@aminzer/uuid';

console.log(isValid('a2b8c6bf-f5e9-4231-8319-7d577b7f8064'));

• uuidString (string, required) - string that need to be checked.
• options (object, optional):
  • hyphens (boolean, optional, true by default) - should input string have UUID hyphen-separators or not.

boolean determining if input string has UUID format or not.

parse

parse converts input UUID string to UUID Uint8Array.

import { parse } from '@aminzer/uuid';

console.log(parse('a2b8c6bf-f5e9-4231-8319-7d577b7f8064'));

• uuidString (string, required) - string to be parsed.
• options (object, optional):
  • validate (boolean, optional, true by default) - validate input string format or not.

UUID Uint8Array parsed from input UUID string.

stringify

stringify converts input UUID Uint8Array to UUID string.

import { stringify, generateBytes } from '@aminzer/uuid';

const uuidBytes = generateBytes();
console.log(stringify(uuidBytes));

• uuidBytes (Uint8Array, required) - bytes to be stringified.
• options (object, optional):
  • validate (boolean, optional, true by default) - validate input bytes format or not.
  • hyphens (boolean, optional, true by default) - add hyphens into output string or not.
  • uppercase (boolean, optional, false by default) - convert output string to uppercase or not.

UUID string stringified from input UUID Uint8Array.
