Another Memory ID

This library contains interface and set of implementations for generating different identifiers. There are multiple implementations available. For production usage identifiers must be mostly unique. For testing purposes it's often much easier to use mocked generator so it will generate the same id each time.

Mocked ID for testing

package id_test

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/anothermemory/id"
)

func Example() {
    g := id.NewMock("123")

    fmt.Println(g.Generate())
    fmt.Println(g.Generate())

    // Output:
    // 123
    // 123
}

Real ID for production

package id_test

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/anothermemory/id"
)

func Example() {
    g := id.NewUUID()

    fmt.Println(g.Generate())
    fmt.Println(g.Generate())

    // Output:
    // 2118679c-d6f6-4848-8084-aaab790fd1ae
    // 394d79cb-803f-4807-a9bc-00d84d5f9ad3
