Functions

func InitRandSeed

func InitRandSeed() error

InitRandSeed initialize the random generator seed. You have to call this first and only once. Deprecated: use github.com/Vonage/gosrvlib/pkg/uidc package instead.

func NewID128

func NewID128() string

NewID128 generates and return a new base-36-string-formatted 128 bit unique ID based on time (high 64 bit) and a random number (low 64 bit). Deprecated: use github.com/Vonage/gosrvlib/pkg/uidc package instead.

Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"

	"github.com/Vonage/gosrvlib/pkg/uid"
)

func main() {
	err := uid.InitRandSeed()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	v := uid.NewID128()

	fmt.Println(v)
}

func NewID64

func NewID64() string

NewID64 generates and return a new base-36-string-formatted 64 bit unique ID based on time (high 32 bit) and a random number (low 32 bit). NOTE: the zero time is set to the 1st of january of 10 year ago. Deprecated: use github.com/Vonage/gosrvlib/pkg/uidc package instead.

Example

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"log"

	"github.com/Vonage/gosrvlib/pkg/uid"
)

func main() {
	err := uid.InitRandSeed()
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	v := uid.NewID64()

	fmt.Println(v)
}
