Conflict with Passenger and Node Cluster module

[sumpton]

Passenger is generating an error

You required the Node Cluster module, which is incompatible with Passenger, a non-functional shim was returned and your app may still work. However, please remove the related code as soon as possible.

node_modules/shortid/lib/util/cluster-worker-id.js:3:15

Does anyone know if this is safe to ignore, or of a work around?

Do not use ShortID, it is deprecated and unsafe.

Use https://github.com/ai/nanoid/

@ai thank you for helping.

Do not use ShortID, it is deprecated and unsafe.

Use https://github.com/ai/nanoid/

But nanoid is a dependency of this package...

@beppe9000 yeap, I as a maintainer of both libraries used Nano ID to solve some problem of short ID with distribution and performance.

But to fix all problems we will need breaking changes in API (dynamic ID length is one of problem). It will be hard to do it, much better just to migrate to Nano ID, which is smaller, safer and faster.
