Functions

func GenUUID

func GenUUID() string

GenUUID generates v4 UUID (Universally Unique Identifier)

Example

fmt.Printf("UUID: %s\n", GenUUID())

func GenUUID4

func GenUUID4() string

GenUUID4 generates random generated UUID

Example

fmt.Printf("UUID v4: %s\n", GenUUID4())

func GenUUID5

func GenUUID5(ns []byte, name string) string

GenUUID5 generates UUID based on SHA-1 hash of namespace UUID and name

Example

fmt.Printf("UUID v5: %s\n", GenUUID5(NsURL, "http://www.domain.com"))
