# readable-id Generate (mostly) human readable, Heroku-style ids. ## Usage ```js rid = require('readable-id') rid() // red-voice-ekDJ84G-We ``` Here is, literally, the entire source code: ```js nanoid = require('nanoid') adjectives = require('./adjectives') nouns = require('./nouns') // adjectives and nouns from https://gist.github.com/afriggeri/1266756 module.exports = function() { id = nanoid(7) adjectiveIndex = Math.round(Math.random() * adjectives.length) nounIndex = Math.round(Math.random() * nouns.length) return adjectives[adjectiveIndex] + "-" + nouns[nounIndex] + "-" + id } ``` The `nanoid` package lends uniqueness and collision resistance, and the adjectives and nouns the human readability.
