|
|
|
|
|
This is an implementation of the [ULID](https://github.com/ulid/spec)
|

|
|
|
spec in Nim! This also supports the JS backend for ULID generation!

This supports [`jsony`](https://github.com/treeform/jsony) and
|
|
|
|
|
[`debby`](https://github.com/treeform/debby) out of the box too!

Random fun fact: I coded the initial code for ULID generation on my phone

via Termux!

## Compile Flags
|
|
|
|
|
`-d:nulidInsecureRandom`: Uses `std/random` instead of `std/sysrand`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-10-29 21:56:08 +00:00
|
|
|
`-d:nulidNoLocks`: Disables any usage of locks within the program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2023-11-01 21:43:23 +00:00
|
|
|
The JS backend automatically defines `-d:nulidNoLocks`.
