Quick setup

npm install easy-key-generator

Import

const KeyGenerator = require("easy-key-generator");

or

import KeyGenerator from "easy-key-generator";

Setup

const myKeyGenerator = new KeyGenerator(5); // Setup to generate a 5 character key

const generatedKey = myKeyGenerator.generate();

console.log(generatedKey); // ["H52N4"]

Alternatively, you can use:

const generatedKey = new KeyGenerator(5).generate();

characterType can only be assigned with the following values:"Letters", "Numbers", "LettersAndNumbers" (default), "HexChar"

Implementing props

const props = {
