Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@rasmx/uid

v1.0.1

Published

Blazing fast WASM ID generation library powered by Rust. Support for UUID (v1-v7), ULID, NanoID, and Base62 shortening.

Readme

@rasmx/uid

Blazing fast ID generation library powered by Rust and WebAssembly. Optimized for performance and modern standards.

Features

  • UUID: Support for versions 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.
  • ULID: Lexicographically sortable identifiers with millisecond precision.
  • NanoID: Secure, URL-friendly unique identifiers with custom alphabet support.
  • Short IDs: Built-in Base62 encoding/decoding to shorten your UUIDs.
  • Metadata: Extract timestamps directly from UUID v7 and ULID.
  • Bulk Generation: Highly optimized vector-based bulk generation for UUID v7.

Installation

pnpm add @rasmx/uid

Usage

Basic Usage

import init, { uuid, ulid, nanoid } from '@rasmx/uid';

// Initialize the WASM module
await init();

// Generate IDs
const idV4 = await uuid.v4();
const idV7 = await uuid.v7();
const myUlid = await ulid.generate();
const myNanoId = await nanoid(21);

Advanced Features

// Bulk generation (UUID v7)
const ids = await uuid.bulk(1000);

// Extract timestamp from ID
const date = await uuid.getTimestamp(idV7);
console.log(date.toISOString());

// Shorten UUID (Base62)
const short = await uuid.toShort(idV4);
const original = await uuid.fromShort(short);

// Deterministic UUIDs
const namespace = "6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8";
const idV5 = await uuid.v5(namespace, "example");

  • toShort(uuid): Converts UUID to Base62 string.
  • fromShort(shortId): Converts Base62 string back to UUID.
  • getTimestamp(uuid): Extracts Date from v7.

ulid
