# uuid
Simple, fast generation of [RFC4122](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt) UUIDs.
Features:
* Generate RFC4122 version 1, version 4, or version 5 UUIDs
* Runs in web, server, and flutter
* Cryptographically strong random number generation on all platforms
* **Defaults to non-crypto generator, see UuidUtil for cryptoRNG**
* [Documentation](https://daegalus.github.io/dart-uuid/index.html)
## Getting Started
### Instructions
1. Open a command line and cd to your projects root folder
2. In your pubspec, add an entry for dart-uuid to your dependencies (example below)
3. pub install
4. If you wish to run tests, go into packages/dart-uuid/ and run 'dart test/uuid_test.dart'
### Pubspec
There are 2 options. Directly from git, or from pub.dartlang.org
pub.dartlang.org: (you can use 'any' instead of a version if you just want the latest always)
```yaml
dependencies:
uuid: ^3.0.6
```
```dart
import 'package:uuid/uuid.dart';
var uuid = Uuid();
```
Then create some ids ...
```dart
// Generate a v1 (time-based) id
uuid.v1(); // -> '6c84fb90-12c4-11e1-840d-7b25c5ee775a'
// Generate a v4 (random) id
uuid.v4(); // -> '110ec58a-a0f2-4ac4-8393-c866d813b8d1'
// Generate a v5 (namespace-name-sha1-based) id
uuid.v5(Uuid.NAMESPACE_URL, 'www.google.com'); // -> 'c74a196f-f19d-5ea9-bffd-a2742432fc9c'
```
## API
### Uuid({Map<String, dynamic> options: null}) -> Uuid (Constructor)
Constructor supports setting some global RNG sertings so you don't have to specify them on each function call for v4 or v5
* `options` - (Map<String, dynamic>) Optional uuid state to apply. Properties may include:
* `grng` - (Function) Random # generator to use as a global rng function. A Custom function that returns an list[16] of byte values or 1 of 2 provided.
* `gNamedArgs` - (Map<Symbol, dynamic>) The arguments and values you want to pass to your global rng function.
* `gPositionalArgs` - (List) The positional arguments for your global rng functions, if any.
* `v1rng` - (Function) Random # generator to use as a rng function for v1 seed. A Custom function that returns an list[16] of byte values or 1 of 2 provided.
* `v1rngNamedArgs` - (Map<Symbol, dynamic>) The arguments and values you want to pass to your v1 rng function.
* `v1rngPositionalArgs` - (List) The positional arguments for your v1 rng functions, if any.
Defaults are `Uuid.mathRNG`
Example: Using CryptoRNG globally
```dart
var uuid = Uuid(options: {
'grng': UuidUtil.cryptoRNG
})
// Generate a v4 (random) id that will use cryptRNG for its rng function
uuid.v4();
```
### uuid.v1({Map<String, dynamic> options: null) -> String
### uuid.v1obj({Map<String, dynamic> options: null) -> UuidValue
### uuid.v1buffer(List<int> buffer, {Map<String, dynamic> options: null, int offset: 0}) -> List<int>
Generate and return a RFC4122 v1 (timestamp-based) UUID.
* `options` - (Map<String, dynamic>) Optional uuid state to apply. Properties may include:
* `node` - (List<int>) Node id as List of 6 bytes (per 4.1.6). Default: Randomnly generated ID.
* `clockseq` - (Number between 0 - 0x3fff) RFC clock sequence. Default: An internally maintained clockseq is used.
* `msecs` - (Number) Time in milliseconds since unix Epoch. Default: The current time is used.
* `nsecs` - (Number between 0-9999) additional time, in 100-nanosecond units. Ignored if `msecs` is unspecified. Default: internal uuid counter is used, as per 4.2.1.2.
* `buffer` - (List<int>) Array or buffer where UUID bytes are to be written.
* `offset` - (Int) Starting index in `buffer` at which to begin writing.
v1() returns a string representation of the uuid.
v1buffer() Returns a List<int> `buffer`, if specified, also writes the data to the provided buffer.
v1obj() Returns a UuidValue, which has a validation check and some internal functions wrapping the string.
Example: Generate string UUID with fully-specified options
```dart
uuid.v1(options: {
'node': [0x01, 0x23, 0x45, 0x67, 0x89, 0xab],
'clockSeq': 0x1234,
'mSecs': new DateTime.utc(2011,11,01).millisecondsSinceEpoch,
'nSecs': 5678
}) // -> "710b962e-041c-11e1-9234-0123456789ab"
```
Example: In-place generation of two binary IDs
```dart
// Generate two ids in an array
var myBuffer = new List(32); // -> []
uuid.v1buffer(myBuffer);
// -> [115, 189, 5, 128, 201, 91, 17, 225, 146, 52, 109, 0, 9, 0, 52, 128, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null]
uuid.v1buffer(myBuffer, offset: 16);
// -> [115, 189, 5, 128, 201, 91, 17, 225, 146, 52, 109, 0, 9, 0, 52, 128, 115, 189, 5, 129, 201, 91, 17, 225, 146, 52, 109, 0, 9, 0, 52, 128]
// Optionally use uuid.unparse() to get stringify the ids
uuid.unparse(myBuffer); // -> '73bd0580-c95b-11e1-9234-6d0009003480'
uuid.unparse(myBuffer, offset: 16) // -> '73bd0581-c95b-11e1-9234-6d0009003480'
```
Example: UuidValue usage
```dart
uuidValue = uuid.v1Obj(options: {
'node': [0x01, 0x23, 0x45, 0x67, 0x89, 0xab],
'clockSeq': 0x1234,
'mSecs': new DateTime.utc(2011,11,01).millisecondsSinceEpoch,
'nSecs': 5678
}) // -> UuidValue{uuid: '710b962e-041c-11e1-9234-0123456789ab'}
print(uuidValue) -> // -> '710b962e-041c-11e1-9234-0123456789ab'
uuidValue.toBytes() -> // -> [...]
```
### uuid.v4({Map<String, dynamic> options: null}) -> String
### uuid.v4obj({Map<String, dynamic> options: null}) -> UuidValue
### uuid.v4buffer(List<int> buffer, {Map<String, dynamic> options: null, int offset: 0}) -> List<int>

### uuid.v5(String namespace, String name, {Map<String, dynamic> options: null}) -> String
### uuid.v5obj(String namespace, String name, {Map<String, dynamic> options: null}) -> UuidValue
### uuid.v5buffer(String namespace, String name, List<int> buffer, {Map<String, dynamic> options: null, int offset: 0}) -> List<int>
Generate and return a RFC4122 v5 UUID.
* `options` - (Map<String, dynamic>) Optional uuid state to apply. Properties may include:
* `randomNamespace` - (Boolean) Default True. Returns if you want a v4 generated namespace (true) or NAMESPACE_NIL (false)
* `buffer` - (List<int>) Array or buffer where UUID bytes are to be written.
* `offset` - (Number) Starting index in `buffer` at which to begin writing.
v5() returns a string representation of the uuid.
v5buffer() Returns a List<int> `buffer`, if specified, also writes the data to the provided buffer.
v5obj() Returns a UuidValue, which has a validation check and some internal functions wrapping the string.
Example: Generate string UUID with fully-specified options
```dart
uuid.v5(Uuid.NAMESPACE_URL, 'www.google.com');
// -> "c74a196f-f19d-5ea9-bffd-a2742432fc9c"
```
Example: Generate two IDs in a single buffer
```dart
var myBuffer = new List(32);
uuid.v5buffer(Uuid.NAMESPACE_URL, 'www.google.com', myBuffer);
uuid.v5buffer(Uuid.NAMESPACE_URL, 'www.google.com', myBuffer, offset: 16);
```
Example: UuidValue usage
```dart
uuidValue = uuid.v5obj(Uuid.NAMESPACE_URL, 'www.google.com');
// -> UuidValue(uuid: "c74a196f-f19d-5ea9-bffd-a2742432fc9c")
print(uuidValue) -> // -> 'c74a196f-f19d-5ea9-bffd-a2742432fc9c'

### uuid.parse(String uuid, {List<int> buffer: null, int offset: 0, bool validate: true, ValidationMode validationMode: ValidationMode.strictRFC4122}) -> List<int>
### uuid.parseAsByteList(String uuid, {List<int> buffer: null, int offset: 0, bool validate: true, ValidationMode validationMode: ValidationMode.strictRFC4122}) -> Uint8List
### uuid.unparse(List<int> buffer, {int offset: 0}) -> String
Parse and unparse UUIDs
* `id` - (String) UUID(-like) string
* `buffer` - (List) Array or buffer where UUID bytes are to be written. Default: A new Array or Buffer is used
* `offset` - (Int | Number) Starting index in `buffer` at which to begin writing. Default: 0
* `validate` - (bool, default: true) Allows you to disable UUID validation, mostly useful for Microsoft GUID nonsense.
**Throws**:
parse() -> FormatException - when not a valid UUID
unparse() -> Exception - when length of list contents is not 16
Example parsing and unparsing a UUID string
```dart
var bytes = uuid.parse('797ff043-11eb-11e1-80d6-510998755d10'); // -> [121, 127, 240, 67, 17, 235, 17, 225, 128, 214, 81, 9, 152, 117, 93, 16]
var string = uuid.unparse(bytes); // -> '797ff043-11eb-11e1-80d6-510998755d10'
```

## Testing
In dartvm
```

In Browser/flutter
No in browser testing, but I know many use it in Web and Flutter projects.
