NPM standalone version of Meteor group Random package
npm install meteor-standalone-random#### This version is minimally modified to work with NPM in support of the React Meteor Standalone Mixin ####
The random package provides several functions for generating random
numbers. It uses a cryptographically strong pseudorandom number generator when
possible, but falls back to a weaker random number generator when
cryptographically strong randomness is not available (on older browsers or on
servers that don't have enough entropy to seed the cryptographically strong
generator).
- Random.id([n]) - Returns a unique identifier, such as "Jjwjg6gouWLXhMGKW", that is
likely to be unique in the whole world. The optional argument n
specifies the length of the identifier in characters and defaults to 17.
- Random.secret([n]) - Returns a random string of printable characters with 6 bits of
entropy per character. The optional argument n specifies the length of
the secret string and defaults to 43 characters, or 256 bits of
entropy. Use Random.secret for security-critical secrets that are
intended for machine, rather than human, consumption.
- Random.fraction() - Returns a number between 0 and 1, like Math.random.
- Random.choice(arrayOrString) - Returns a random element of the given array or string.
- Random.hexString(n) - Returns a random string of n hexadecimal digits.
