Construct ObjectIDs without the mongodb driver or bson module
npm install bson-objectidBSON ObjectID 
=============
This module allows you to create and parse ObjectIDs without a reference to the
mongodb or bson
modules.
The goal is to be 100% compatable with all bson's
public API implementation (found here: https://github.com/mongodb/js-bson/blob/main/src/objectid.ts).
javascript
var ObjectID = require("bson-objectid");console.log(ObjectID());
console.log(ObjectID("54495ad94c934721ede76d90"));
console.log(ObjectID(1414093117));//time
console.log(ObjectID([ 84, 73, 90, 217, 76, 147, 71, 33, 237, 231, 109, 144 ]));
console.log(ObjectID(new Buffer([ 84, 73, 90, 217, 76, 147, 71, 33, 237, 231, 109, 144 ])));
`$3
Creates a new immutable instance based on the current system time.Possible arguments:
time Constructs the instance based on the specified time (in seconds).
hexString Constructs the instance from a 24 character hex string.
idString Constructs the instance from a 12 byte string.
array Constructs the instance from an
Array of 24 bytes.
buffer Constructs the instance from a 24 byte Buffer instance.
#### id
returns the 12 byte id string.
#### str
#### toHexString()
returns the
ObjectID represented as a 24 character hex string.#### equals(other)
returns true if the
ObjectIDs represent the same underlying value. Otherwise false.
#### getTimestamp()
returns the generation Date (accurate up to the second) that this ObjectID was generated.$3
Creates an ObjectID from a time (in seconds) Number, with the rest of the ObjectID zeroed out. Used for comparisons or sorting the ObjectID.$3
Creates an ObjectID from a 24 character hex string.$3
Checks if a value is a valid ObjectID` or 24 character hex string.or
