xid-js is a global unique id generator module for Node.js. The generator implementation is
ported from golang package [xid](https://github.com/rs/xid).
A 20 chars long unique id can be generated directly without any configuration, and id
is encoded in base32 format (w/o padding) by
using [Crockford's Base32](http://www.crockford.com/wrmg/base32.html) alphabet set.
## Install
npm install xid-js
## Usage
```javascript
const xid = require('xid-js');
// generate an id
xid.next(); // b0xzcjjhcjkbqnpwz150
```
