Generate random identifiers in a number of styles:

  • random ids of any number of bytes, such as 31f6d556fe2b303c
  • UUIDs using the uuid package, sugh as 4f0efabf-0375-4a08-89ea-b8f162f07c44
  • human readable identifiers in the style <adjective>_<animal> (following gfycat.com), such as misanthropic_lungfish
  • human readable identifiers in the style of a sentence (following Asana, such as 33_enormous_chinchillas_tumbling_elegantly

These can all be tweaked with options for length, words that are used, and the case that joins words. There is a function ids for creating your own human readable identifiers.
