"str-gen", short for "string generator". This is a utility package that generates a variety of random strings.

Usage

First, assuming that NPM is installed on your machine, create a new directory, navigate to it, and install the package using a command line interface (CLI) of your choice:

mkdir example-project
cd example-project
npm install @francisfuzz/str-gen

Then, create a file, say example.js and run it in your CLI as node example.js:

const generate = require('@francisfuzz/str-gen')
const SIMPLE_CHARSET = ['s', 'i', 'm', 'p', 'l', 'e']

console.log(generate(10, SIMPLE_CHARSET)) // => 'lsmsmepssp'

Check out the examples/ directory for more interesting cases.
