Generate a random ID.
By default, getID generates a random string with 22 characters:
//Import
var getID = require('getid');
//Generate a random string ID
var id = getID(); //Returns 'c14x5E22610MJqk8J15748', for example
You can use it with some options:
Option | Description |
---|---|
length | Set the length of the generated string. Default is 22. |
prefix | Set a prefix for the generated string. |
suffix | Set a suffix for the generated string. |
Example:
var getID = require('getid');
//Generate a random string with options
var id = getID({length: 10, prefix: 'ID'}); //Returns 'ID4F52M26448'
