How to generate random Strings in Java java docs code example
Example 1: generate random string in java
import java.util.Random;
public class Generator {
public static String generateRandomPassword(int len) {
String chars = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijk"
+"lmnopqrstuvwxyz!@#$%&";
Random rnd = new Random();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(len);
for (int i = 0; i < len; i++)
sb.append(chars.charAt(rnd.nextInt(chars.length())));
return sb.toString();
}
}
Example 2: java 8 random string generator
@Test
public void givenUsingJava8_whenGeneratingRandomAlphanumericString_thenCorrect() {
int leftLimit = 48;
int rightLimit = 122;
int targetStringLength = 10;
Random random = new Random();
String generatedString = random.ints(leftLimit, rightLimit + 1)
.filter(i -> (i <= 57 || i >= 65) && (i <= 90 || i >= 97))
.limit(targetStringLength)
.collect(StringBuilder::new, StringBuilder::appendCodePoint, StringBuilder::append)
.toString();
System.out.println(generatedString);
}
