unique id javascript code example

Example 1: random id js

var ID = function () {
  // Math.random should be unique because of its seeding algorithm.
  // Convert it to base 36 (numbers + letters), and grab the first 9 characters
  // after the decimal.
  return '_' + Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 9);
};

Example 2: javascript generate unique id

function uuidv4() {
  return 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'.replace(/[xy]/g, function(c) {
    var r = Math.random() * 16 | 0, v = c == 'x' ? r : (r & 0x3 | 0x8);
    return v.toString(16);
  });
}

console.log(uuidv4());

Example 3: javascript generate unique id

function randomId(): string {
  const uint32 = window.crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint32Array(1))[0];
  return uint32.toString(16);
}

Example 4: javascript uniqie id

Example 5: js library for unique id uniqid

uniqid() -> "4n5pxq24kpiob12og9"
uniqid('hello-') -> "hello-4n5pxq24kpiob12og9"
uniqid('hello-', '-goodbye') -> "hello-4n5pxq24kpiob12og9-goodbye"

// usage with suffix only
uniqid('', '-goodbye') -> "4n5pxq24kpiob12og9-goodbye"
uniqid(undefined, '-goodbye') -> "4n5pxq24kpiob12og9-goodbye"
