uuid(Buffer.allocUnsafe(uuid.BYTES)) // => allocUnsafe'ed 16 byte Buffer
`
must be a Buffer of at least 128 bits (16 bytes).
This module will fill the first 16 bytes with random bits but set the
appropriate bits to be recognised as a UUID v4. This leaves 122 bits of entropy.
This method does not insert dashes in the formatting, but this can be done with
the uuid.stringify method.$3
Convert buf to string representation of UUID eg.
4a181507-72e2-45c7-a512-9d9601425b2d. Will only read the first 16 bytes
of buf.$3
Convert str to Buffer representation of UUID, written to optional argument
buf, which must be Buffer of at least length uuid.BYTES. Will be allocated
if not given. Will fail if str is not a valid UUIDv4$3
Check that obj is a valid UUIDv4. obj can be either a string or Buffer$3
Constant defining the number of bytes must be able to contain.Install
`sh
npm install sodium-uuid
