uuid

You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake, but your identifiers can be.

As you may of guessed this library provides RFC4122 compliant universally unique identifiers.

Example Usage

The uuid library provides a factory function for producing random version 4 UUIDs. This allows you to get the identification you want with no setup.

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/benjic/uuid"
)

func main() {
	id := uuid.Generate()
	fmt.Println(id)
}

Goals

• Fast
  • Benchmark should prove this library can supply a bunch of identifiers really, really quickly.
• Simple
  • If a consumer is fine with sane defaults consumption of library should be a simple factory function.
• Configurable
  • If sane defaults are not ideal, a consumer should be able to configure the library to suit their needs.
