?readable
Switches from standard uuidv4 format to Readable UUIDs, that are Shakespearean grammatically correct sentences.
Eg. Nertie Irwin Farris the Tighter of Chandlerville reminded Erica Aguistin Maryl and 8 dapper jaguars
?short
Switches from standard UUIDv4 to a Short ID. These ID’s are converted from UUIDv4 ID’s so they are just as unique & colission free.
Eg. rZMRC1FzqYjVLxNN6iKqqq
?ulid
Uses the ulidx package to generate ULID’s.
Eg. 01FB0CCPD8R0H9KAJBFQJDFYJB
?nanoid
Uses the nanoid package to generate ID’s.
Supports &len=
param to adjust ID length. If this is not a number it will be silently ignored.
If used in combonation with bulk
api, may fail if len
is too long.
