Python implementation of TypeIDs: type-safe, K-sortable, and globally unique identifiers inspired by Stripe IDs
Project description
TypeID Python
A Python implementation of TypeIDs using Python
TypeIDs are a modern, type-safe, globally unique identifier based on the upcoming UUIDv7 standard. They provide a ton of nice properties that make them a great choice as the primary identifiers for your data in a database, APIs, and distributed systems. Read more about TypeIDs in their spec.
This particular implementation provides an pip package that can be used by any Python project.
Installation
-
PyPI:
pip install typeid-python
-
Poetry:
poetry add typeid-python
Usage
Basic
-
Create TypeID Instance:
from typeid import TypeID typeid = TypeID() print(typeid.prefix) # "" print(typeid.suffix) # "01h45ytscbebyvny4gc8cr8ma2" (encoded uuid7 instance) typeid = TypeID(prefix="user") print(typeid.prefix) # "user" print(str(typeid)) # "user_01h45ytscbebyvny4gc8cr8ma2"
-
Create TypeID from string:
from typeid import TypeID typeid = TypeID.from_string("user_01h45ytscbebyvny4gc8cr8ma2") print(str(typeid)) # "user_01h45ytscbebyvny4gc8cr8ma2"
-
Create TypeID from uuid7:
from typeid import TypeID from uuid6 import uuid7 uuid = uuid7() # UUID('01890bf0-846f-7762-8605-5a3abb40e0e5') prefix = "user" typeid = TypeID.from_uuid(prefix=prefix, suffix=uuid) print(str(typeid)) # "user_01h45z113fexh8c1at7axm1r75"
CLI-tool
-
Install dependencies:
pip install typeid-python[cli]
-
To generate a new TypeID, run:
$ python3 -m typeid.cli new -p prefix prefix_01h2xcejqtf2nbrexx3vqjhp41
-
To decode an existing TypeID into a UUID run:
$ python3 -m typeid.cli decode prefix_01h2xcejqtf2nbrexx3vqjhp41 type: prefix uuid: 0188bac7-4afa-78aa-bc3b-bd1eef28d881
-
And to encode an existing UUID into a TypeID run:
$ python3 -m typeid.cli encode 0188bac7-4afa-78aa-bc3b-bd1eef28d881 --prefix prefix prefix_01h2xcejqtf2nbrexx3vqjhp41
