Uniq

Uniq provides generation, formatting, parsing, and analysis of UUIDs described by RFC 9562. It is available on Hex as :uniq.

Features

Generates UUID versions 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Parses those versions and opaque UUIDv8 payloads. UUIDv8 supplies a version, variant, and bytes; its custom payload has no generic generation or timestamp interpretation.
Provides reversible UUIDv47 timestamp masking as v4-shaped facades. See the facade guide for usage and security boundaries.
Supports formatting UUIDs as canonical strings (e.g. 6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8, with or without the dashes), as URNs, e.g. urn:uuid:6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8, as well as a compact, 22-character, base64-encoded format using a URI-safe alphabet (e.g. a6e4EJ2tEdGAtADAT9QwyA).
Case-insensitive, i.e. 6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8 and 6BA7B810-9DAD-11D1-80B4-00C04FD430C8 have the same encoding
Supports Ecto out of the box, just use Uniq.UUID as the type of a field where you would use Ecto.UUID. See the docs for more info.
Can be used as a drop-in replacement for elixir_uuid, see the docs for details on migrating

def deps do
  [
    {:uniq, "~> 0.7"}
  ]
end

The primary API is provided by the Uniq.UUID module.

To generate UUIDs, pick the version you want, and call the appropriate generator. For example:

uuid1/0, generates UUIDv1 and formats it as a human-readable string, i.e. 6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8
uuid1/1, generates UUIDv1 in the specified format
uuid3/2, generates UUIDv3 using the provided namespace and name, and formats it as a human-readable string
uuid3/3, generates UUIDv3 using the provided namespace and name, in the specified format

See the docs for the full set of functions available.

You can also convert UUID strings to/from the human-readable and binary formats; parse UUID strings/binaries; and determine their validity.
