### npm

`npm i @otumian-empire/somerandchar`

## Usage

### Generate X numbers for token

```javascript
// Need 6 numbers for token
const somerandchar = require("@otumian-empire/somerandchar");
const builder = new somerandchar();

// call the size method and pass the desired size as integer
// call the alnum method to numeric characters
// call the toString method to return the token
const result = builder.size(6).alnum().toString();
console.log(result);

// 895208
// 650209
// 888880
```

### Generate long random alphabetic string for email verification

```javascript
// Need long random alphabetic string for email verification,
// as part of url
// call alpha method and pass 128 to the size method
const somerandchar = require("@otumian-empire/somerandchar");
const builder = new somerandchar();

const result = builder.size(128).alpha().toString();
console.log(result);

```

### Generate long random alphanumeric string for email verification

```javascript
// Need long alphanumeric characters as token for email verification,
// as part of url - call alphanum and pass 64 to the size method
const somerandchar = require("@otumian-empire/somerandchar");
const builder = new somerandchar();

const result = builder.alphanum().size(64).toString();

console.log(result);

// lpQRGXWKmvN9DnCTRIgIcSPWWlm5SWgsTn_-rlfufMpTdadp3CveOsR9dULu2ZFd
// B5V_mijVumPf-62gVo6LIqx2UfQ8M7XEJKhAguDG6Xes5-81gXCJzSmhNg72cQ30
```

## Customize somerandchar - With some other character sets

Pass a string to the `customSet` method any a preferred size, `n` to the `size` method.

```javascript
const somerandchar = require("@otumian-empire/somerandchar");
const builder = new somerandchar();

const size = 16;
const charSet =
"johnDOEu997uwt0tq5--z_(hz5m)un(7jp68(3)htuwlh__-psq5w1pDAnceMoney";

const result = builder.customSet(charSet).size(size).toString();

console.log(result);

// tsn_oqc_8tDup7Aj
// _w(59oD0pp190-ut
```

## NOTE

- The other in which `size` and, `customSet`, `alphanum`, `alpha` or `alnum` is called does not affect the output.
- As mentioned or demonstrated, when size is not called the default value of `size` is `6` and when neither `customSet`, `alphanum`, `alpha` nor `alnum` is called, the default character set used is `alnum`.
