Meaningful-String
Meaningful String is an npm package which generates a random meaningful string.
Getting Started
Here is how you can install this package globally using npmInstallation
using npm$ npm install meaningful-string -g
In Node.js:
const generate = require('meaningful-string');
//Generate random string
console.log('Random String: ',generate.random());
Result
`
Random String: HJ7H9Lkt7hFdS7mJY48NnmHH6hDdg76lIfaD4MhU6Y
`Usage
let options = {
"min":10,
"max":15,
"capsWithNumbers":true
}
console.log('Random String: ',generate.random(options));
Result `
Random String: GJ67ML7G6GJU5M1
`options There are a few options that can be useful:
`
Note
`: All of these options are optional.min: This is the minimum length of the generated random string.
max: This is the maximum length of the generated random string.
allCaps: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range A-Z) are allowed in the generated random string.
allSmall: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) are allowed in the generated random string.
capsWithNumbers: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range: A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
smallWithNumbers: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) and numbers (range: 0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
onlyNumbers: It tells that only numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
custom: You can also define your own charset.
charLength: When you specify charLength, it will take privilege over min, max parameters. This string will be generated exact the length of charLength.
startWith: This would be the starting of the generated random string.
endWith: This would be the end of the generated random string.
meaningful
It is a function which generates string using animal names followed by adjectives followed by numbersUsage
let options = {

Result
`
Random Meaningful String: rat-smile-45
``
Random Meaningful String: Fox-emotional-32
`options There are a few options that can be useful:
`
Note
`: All of these options are optional.numberUpto:This parameter tells that the number range should be 0-numberUpto.

shortId
It is a function which generates short id.Note: it generates the short Id in the range of 0-8 i.e. charLength can be minimum: 0 and maximum:8.
Usage
let options = {
"charLength":6,
"custom":"frt564"
}
console.log('Random ShortId: ',generate.shortId(options));
console.log('Random ShortId: ',generate.shortId(options));
Result
`
Random ShortId: ff6ftr
``
Random ShortId: ftr5r4
`options There are a few options that can be useful:
`
Note
`: All of these options are optional.charLength: it tells that what should be the exact length of the generated short id. It should be in the range: (3-8)
allCaps: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range A-Z) are allowed in the generated random string.
allSmall: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) are allowed in the generated random string.
capsWithNumbers: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range: A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
smallWithNumbers: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) and numbers (range: 0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
onlyNumbers: It tells that only numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
custom: You can also define your own charset.
charLength: When you specify charLength, it will take privilege over min, max parameters. This string will be generated exact the size of
charLength
.hashCode
This function is used to generate hash code.Usage
let string = "meaningful-string hash"
console.log('Hash: ',generate.hashCode(string));
Result
`
Hash: 287044560
`uuidv4
It is a function which generates version 4 UUID.Usage
console.log('uuidv4: ',generate.uuidv4());
console.log('uuidv4: ',generate.uuidv4());
Result
