Easily create random strings of any length.
New in v0.1.0
random.number(n)
random.lower(n)
random.upper(n)
random.letters(n)
random.alphaNum(n)
random.any(n)
random.id()
random.mixin(name, charset, [interceptor])
n
represents the desired length of the string, but random
will use 8 by default if you choose not to pass anything.
random.number(n)
Returns an integer of n
length
random.number(16)
//=> "7753750611098561"
random.lower(n)
Returns a lowercase string of n
length
random.lower(16)
//=> "mcgjmlihofwxjfsx"
random.upper(n)
Returns an uppercase string of n
length
random.upper(16)
//=> "TKTTVSDZYEGBVMMV"
random.letters(n)
Returns an upper / lower case string of n
length
random.letters(16)
//=> "ahWfDPoyOrVSaKYg"
random.alphaNum(n)
Returns an alpha-numeric string of n
length
random.alphaNum(16)
//=> "lEJYcbYznCU5ORdj"
random.any(n)
Same as random.alphaNum
with the addition of the $ and !
characters
random.any(16)
//=> "f$KgcADOIrEyxE!o"
random.id()
A convenient shorthand for calling random.any(16)
random.id()
//=> "f$KgcADOIrEyxE!o"
random.mixin(name, charsets, [interceptor])
Extend random
with your own charsets. Pass an optional interceptor to manipulate the result before returning to the client.
NOTE If you pass an interceptor, you MUST return the result when you are done
var foos = 'foobarbazbing'.split('');
random.mixin('foo', foos);
// Now foo is a property on the `random` object,
// and behaves the same as the rest of the API,
// accepting the length of the result,
// or defaulting to 8.
random.foo(1) //=> 'o'
random.foo(3) //=> 'orb'
random.foo(16) //=> 'fzgngorbzbbooorn'
If you would like to change the result before it's returned to the client, pass an interceptor function. This function accepts the result, and must RETURN SOMETHING.
var foos = 'foobarbazbing'.split('');
random.mixin('foo', foos, function(result) {
return result.toUpperCase();
});
random.foo() //=> 'ABRBBOZO'
