generate random string nodejs code example

Example 1: javascript generate random string

// Generate a random alphanumerical string of length 11 ( change substring parameter for other length)
Math.random().toString(36).substring(2);

Example 2: js random string

function randomString(length) {
		var result           = '';
		var characters       = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789~!@#$%^&*()_+=-';
		var charactersLength = characters.length;
		for ( var i = 0; i < length; i++ ) {
		   result += characters.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * charactersLength));
		}
		return result;
	 }
randomString(4);

Example 3: javascript get random string

function getRandomString(length) {
    var randomChars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789';
    var result = '';
    for ( var i = 0; i < length; i++ ) {
        result += randomChars.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * randomChars.length));
    }
    return result;
}

//usage: getRandomString(20); // pass desired length of random string

Example 4: random string generator node js

function makeid(length) {
    var result           = [];
    var characters       = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789';
    var charactersLength = characters.length;
    for ( var i = 0; i < length; i++ ) {
      result.push(characters.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * 
 charactersLength)));
   }
   return result.join('');
}

console.log(makeid(5));

Example 5: how to generate random string in node js

var crypto = require("crypto");
var id = crypto.randomBytes(20).toString('hex');

// "bb5dc8842ca31d4603d6aa11448d1654"

Example 6: random alphabet javascript

Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 5);
