Identifier generator tools often used privately

Python Identifier Generator Tools

Identifier generator tools often used privately in Python.

Includes the following features:

• base32
  • support alphabet RFC4648, base32hex, crockford, zbase32
• base58
  • support alphabet bitcoin, ripple, flickr
  • base58check encoding
• xid
  • python implementation of xid
• uuid7
  • python implementation of uuid version 7
  • leftmost random bits (12 bits) use nanoseconds
• uuid58
  • convert uuid to base58, base58 to uuid
  • convert uuid to base58check, base58check to uuid

Install

Install and update using pip:

pip install -U hisak-idtools

Xid Example

from hisak.idtools.xid import new_xid

print(new_xid())

UUID7 Example

from hisak.idtools.uuid7 import new_uuid7

print(new_uuid7())

If you use it in multithreading or multiprocessing, the counter is not exclusive, so if you want to guarantee monotonicity counter in nanoseconds, you must implement exclusion separately.

UUID58 Example

from hisak.idtools.uuid58 import uuid4

print(uuid4().base58)
