Deno MayLily

A changed copy of Maylily a distributable, serverless, and customizable unique ID generator based on Snowflake. Made compatible with deno.

Features

distributable / scalable
no external servers required
customizable
supports 2-36 radix
supports multiple precision integer

How to import

Import with nest.land:

import { maylily } from "https://x.nest.land/deno-maylily@3.0.0/mod.ts";

Or use deno.land:

import { maylily } from  "https://deno.land/x/deno_maylily@3.0.0/mod.ts";

How to use

No external servers needed. Just import and call maylily()!

import { maylily } from "https://x.nest.land/deno-maylily@3.0.0/mod.ts";

try {
  const id = await maylily();
  // do something...
} catch (err) {
  // err is instance of Error
}

How to customize

name	description	default
`radix`	radix of generated ID (2-36)	10
`timeBase`	base time in unixtime (millisec)	946684800000 (2000-01-01T00:00:00Z)
`machineId`	identifier of machine; must be unique in service	0
`machineBits`	required bits to represent machineId	3
`generatorId`	identifier of generator; must be unique in machine	process ID
`generatorBits`	required bits to represent generatorId	10
`sequenceBits`	required bits to represent sequence	8

Generated value is stringified multiple precision integer (in specified radix).

|------------------------------------------|                         current time from timeBase in millisec
                                           |---|                     machineId (uses machineBits bits)
                                               |----------|          generatorId (uses generatorBits bits)
                                                          |--------| sequence number (uses sequenceBits bits)

example:

// keeps options until next change
maylily({
  timeBase: Date.parse("2017-01-01T00:00:00Z"),   // if your service starts in 2017, this is enough.
  machineBits: 1                                  // if required number machines are up to 2, this is enough.
});
