Constants ¶

const Version = "1.0.1"

Version of the library

Functions ¶

func Next ¶

func Next() string

Generate the next NUID string from the global locked NUID instance.

Types ¶

type NUID ¶

type NUID struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

func New ¶

func New() *NUID

New will generate a new NUID and properly initialize the prefix, sequential start, and sequential increment.

func (*NUID) Next ¶

func (n *NUID) Next() string

Generate the next NUID string.

func (*NUID) RandomizePrefix ¶

func (n *NUID) RandomizePrefix()

Generate a new prefix from crypto/rand. This call *can* drain entropy and will be called automatically when we exhaust the sequential range. Will panic if it gets an error from rand.Int()
