uuidv4 javascript
To generate a UUIDv4 in JavaScript, you can use the uuid
package. Here's an example of how to do it:
const { v4: uuidv4 } = require('uuid');
const uuid = uuidv4();
console.log(uuid);
Make sure you have the uuid
package installed before running this code. You can install it using npm:
npm install uuid
This code will generate a UUIDv4 and log it to the console. The generated UUID will be a string in the format xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
, where each x
is a hexadecimal digit and y
is a hexadecimal digit from the set [8, 9, A, or B]
.
Please note that the uuid
package is not a built-in module in Node.js, so you need to install it separately.
