Simple generator of unique tokens.
Project description
Usage:
pip install uniqtoken from uniqtoken import uniqtoken token1 = uniqtoken() token2 = uniqtoken() assert token1 != token2
Starts with a sequence random enough to be indexed efficiently when token is used as a hash key.
This random sequence is long enough to be hard to guess.
Ends with explicit timestamp with precision about 0.01 seconds (system dependent) to be more unique.
Is more than 3x faster than standard uuid.uuid4() - see tests in uniqtoken.py:test().
Is ready to be used as a fixed length string token containing exactly 64 safe hex digits.
