This is going to provide the random meaningful string using animal names followed by adjective followed by numbers. Additional to that, you can generate random shortId using custom options
npm install meaningful-string

Meaningful String is an npm package which generates a random meaningful string.
$ npm install meaningful-string -g
`In Node.js:
`
const generate = require('meaningful-string');//Generate random string
console.log('Random String: ',generate.random());
`Result
Random String: HJ7H9Lkt7hFdS7mJY48NnmHH6hDdg76lIfaD4MhU6YUsage
`
let options = {
"min":10,
"max":15,
"capsWithNumbers":true
}
console.log('Random String: ',generate.random(options));
`Result
Random String: GJ67ML7G6GJU5M1options
There are a few options that can be useful:
Note: All of these options are optional.min: This is the minimum length of the generated random string.
max: This is the maximum length of the generated random string.
allCaps: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range A-Z) are allowed in the generated random string.
allSmall: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) are allowed in the generated random string.
capsWithNumbers: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range: A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
smallWithNumbers: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) and numbers (range: 0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
onlyNumbers: It tells that only numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
custom: You can also define your own charset.
charLength: When you specify charLength, it will take privilege over min, max parameters. This string will be generated exact the length of charLength.
startWith: This would be the starting of the generated random string.
endWith: This would be the end of the generated random string.
meaningful
It is a function which generates string using animal names followed by adjectives followed by numbers
Usage
`
let options = {
"numberUpto":60,
"joinBy":'-'
}console.log('Random Meaningful String: ',generate.meaningful(options));
console.log('Random Meaningful String: ',generate.meaningful(options));
`Result
Random Meaningful String: rat-smile-45Random Meaningful String: Fox-emotional-32
options
There are a few options that can be useful:
Note: All of these options are optional.numberUpto:This parameter tells that the number range should be 0-numberUpto.
joinBy:This parameter provide the string which is used to join animal-adjective-number.
shortId
It is a function which generates short id.
Note: it generates the short Id in the range of 0-8 i.e. charLength can be minimum: 0 and maximum:8.
Usage
`
let options = {
"charLength":6,
"custom":"frt564"
}console.log('Random ShortId: ',generate.shortId(options));
console.log('Random ShortId: ',generate.shortId(options));
`Result
Random ShortId: ff6ftrRandom ShortId: ftr5r4options
There are a few options that can be useful:
Note: All of these options are optional.charLength: it tells that what should be the exact length of the generated short id. It should be in the range: (3-8)
allCaps: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range A-Z) are allowed in the generated random string.
allSmall: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) are allowed in the generated random string.
capsWithNumbers: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range: A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
smallWithNumbers: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) and numbers (range: 0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
onlyNumbers: It tells that only numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.
custom: You can also define your own charset.
charLength: When you specify charLength, it will take privilege over min, max parameters. This string will be generated exact the size of
charLength.hashCode
This function is used to generate hash code.
Usage
`
let string = "meaningful-string hash"console.log('Hash: ',generate.hashCode(string));
`Result
Hash: 287044560
uuidv4
It is a function which generates version 4 UUID.
Usage
`
console.log('uuidv4: ',generate.uuidv4());console.log('uuidv4: ',generate.uuidv4());
`Result
uuidv4: 430aa590-3021-4a9d-827e-253e9c58dd2fuuidv4: b02da2ec-622c-4557-b643-2c53d53030cc`meaningful-string is licensed under the MIT license.
