Grand\n\n[![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/ernsheong/grand?status.svg)](http://godoc.org/github.com/ernsheong/grand)\n\nGrand is a Go random string generator.\n\n## Installation\n\n`go get github.com/ernsheong/grand`\n\n## Usage\n\n1. **IMPORTANT.** Seed `rand` first to ensure you don't get the same string on every code run (initialize):\n\n    ```go\n    rand.Seed(time.Now().UTC().UnixNano())\n    ```\n\n    or\n\n    ```go\n    rand.Seed(time.Now().Unix())\n    ```\n\n1. Generate your random string, given a length parameter `n`:\n\n    ```go\n    grand.GenerateRandomString(32)\n    // returns \"qzrWbaoLTVpQoottZyPFfNOoMioXHRuF\"\n    ```\n\n1. Generate random string from other character sets:\n\n    ```go\n    gen := grand.NewGenerator(grand.CharSetBase62)\n\tgen.GenerateRandomString(20)\n    // returns \"q3rWba2LTVpQ4ottZyPv\"\n    ```\n\n## Concurrency\n\nFrom the `math/rand` [docs](https://golang.org/pkg/math/rand/):\n\u003e The default Source is safe for concurrent use by multiple goroutines\n\n`grand` uses the default Source, and hence is safe to be called from multiple goroutines, at a slight performance penalty. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/31832326/1161743 for details.\n\n## Credits\n\nI claim no credit for the generation logic. It's originally from user icza in https://stackoverflow.com/a/31832326/1161743.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fernsheong%2Fgrand","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fernsheong%2Fgrand","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fernsheong%2Fgrand/lists"}
