Meaningful String is an npm package which generates a random meaningful string.

##Getting Started Here is how you can install this package globally using npm

##Installation using npm

$ npm install meaningful-string -g

In Node.js:

const generate = require('meaningful-string');

//Generate random string
console.log('Random String: ',generate.random());

Result

Random String: HJ7H9Lkt7hFdS7mJY48NnmHH6hDdg76lIfaD4MhU6Y

##Usage

var options = {
     "min":10,
     "max":15,
     "capsWithNumbers":true
}
 
console.log('Random String: ',generate.random(options));

Result Random String: GJ67ML7G6GJU5M1

options There are a few options that can be useful:

Note: All of these options are optional.

min: This is the minimum length of the generated random string.

max: This is the maximum length of the generated random string.

allCaps: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range A-Z) are allowed in the generated random string.

allSmall: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) are allowed in the generated random string.

capsWithNumbers: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range: A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.

smallWithNumbers: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) and numbers (range: 0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.

onlyNumbers: It tells that only numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.

custom: You can also define your own charset.

charLength: When you specify charLength, it will take privilege over min, max parameters. This string will be generated exact the length of charLength.

startWith: This would be the starting of the generated random string.

endWith: This would be the end of the generated random string.

##meaningful

It is a function which generates string using animal names followed by adjectives followed by numbers

##Usage

Result

Random Meaningful String: rat-smile-45

Random Meaningful String: Fox-emotional-32

options There are a few options that can be useful:

##Usage

var options = {
"charLength":6,
"custom":"frt564"
}

console.log('Random ShortId: ',generate.shortId(options));

console.log('Random ShortId: ',generate.shortId(options));

Result

Random ShortId: ff6ftr

Random ShortId: ftr5r4

options There are a few options that can be useful:

Note: All of these options are optional.

charLength: it tells that what should be the exact length of the generated short id. It should be in the range: (3-8)

allCaps: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range A-Z) are allowed in the generated random string.

allSmall: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) are allowed in the generated random string.

capsWithNumbers: It tells that only the Upper case alphabets (range: A-Z) and numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.

smallWithNumbers: It tells that only the Lower case alphabets (range: a-z) and numbers (range: 0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.

onlyNumbers: It tells that only numbers (0-9) are allowed in the generated random string.

custom: You can also define your own charset.

charLength: When you specify charLength, it will take privilege over min, max parameters. This string will be generated exact the size of charLength.

##hashCode

This function is used to generate hash code.

##Usage

let string = "meaningful-string hash"

console.log('Hash: ',generate.hashCode(string));

Result

Hash: 287044560
