Takes input strings and hashes them to output strings of the form "[adjective] [animal]". Intended to provide anonymous, (semi-)persistent usernames.
$> npm install --save animalonymous
var input = 'test@animalonymous.com',
anml = require('../'),
salt = "saltysalt111",
results = [
"input: " + input,
"hash(input): [" + anml.hash(input) + "]",
"hash(input, \"saltysalt111\"): [" + anml.hash(input, salt) + "]",
"hashStr(input): " + anml.hashStr(input),
"random(): [" + anml.random() + "]",
"randomStr(): " + anml.randomStr()
];
console.log(results.join("\n"));
// Console Output
// input: test@animalonymous.com
// hash(input): [Upset,Camel]
// hash(input, "saltysalt111"): [Cheap,Wildebeest]
// hashStr(input): Upset Camel
// random(): [Moist,Salamander]
// randomStr(): Cultured Galapagos Tortoise
We have two source arrays comprised of 591 animals and 1344 adjectives which get
combined for a total of 794,304 unique outputs.
The main function in animalonymous takes an md5 hash of the input, then
converts the first 8 bytes to a 32-bit integer for selecting the animals, and
then the next 8 bytes of the hash to a 32-bit integer for the adjectives. It
then takes these integers and determines indexes for each array by floor( (int / 2^32) * len ). It then returns animals[animalsIndex] + " " +adjectives[adjectivesIndex].
