|
|
|
A Go port of [alizain/ulid](https://github.com/alizain/ulid) with binary format implemented.
|
|
|
|
## Background
|
|
|
|
A GUID/UUID can be suboptimal for many use-cases because:
|
|
|
|
- It isn't the most character efficient way of encoding 128 bits
|
|
- UUID v1/v2 is impractical in many environments, as it requires access to a unique, stable MAC address
|
|
- UUID v3/v5 requires a unique seed and produces randomly distributed IDs, which can cause fragmentation in many data structures
|
|
- UUID v4 provides no other information than randomness which can cause fragmentation in many data structures
|
|
|
|
A ULID however:
|
|
|
|
- Is compatible with UUID/GUID's
|
|
- 1.21e+24 unique ULIDs per millisecond (1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 to be exact)
|
|
- Lexicographically sortable
|
|
- Canonically encoded as a 26 character string, as opposed to the 36 character UUID
|
|
- Uses Crockford's base32 for better efficiency and readability (5 bits per character)
|
|
- Case insensitive
|
|
- No special characters (URL safe)
|
|
- Monotonic sort order (correctly detects and handles the same millisecond)
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
go get github.com/oklog/ulid
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
An ULID is constructed with a `time.Time` and an `io.Reader` entropy source.
|
|
This design allows for greater flexibility in choosing your trade-offs.
|
|
|
|
Please note that `rand.Rand` from the `math` package is *not* safe for concurrent use.
|
|
Instantiate one per long living go-routine or use a `sync.Pool` if you want to avoid the potential contention of a locked `rand.Source` as its been frequently observed in the package level functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
func ExampleULID() {
|
|
t := time.Unix(1000000, 0)
|
|
entropy := ulid.Monotonic(rand.New(rand.NewSource(t.UnixNano())), 0)
|
|
fmt.Println(ulid.MustNew(ulid.Timestamp(t), entropy))
|
|
// Output: 0000XSNJG0MQJHBF4QX1EFD6Y3
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Specification
|
|
|
|
Below is the current specification of ULID as implemented in this repository.
|
|
|
|
### Components
|
|
|
|
**Timestamp**
|
|
- 48 bits
|
|
- UNIX-time in milliseconds
|
|
- Won't run out of space till the year 10895 AD
|
|
|
|
**Entropy**
|
|
- 80 bits
|
|
- User defined entropy source.
|
|
- Monotonicity within the same millisecond with [`ulid.Monotonic`](https://godoc.org/github.com/oklog/ulid#Monotonic)
|
|
|
|
### Encoding
|
|
|
|
[Crockford's Base32](http://www.crockford.com/wrmg/base32.html) is used as shown.
|
|
This alphabet excludes the letters I, L, O, and U to avoid confusion and abuse.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
0123456789ABCDEFGHJKMNPQRSTVWXYZ
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Binary Layout and Byte Order
|
|
|
|
The components are encoded as 16 octets. Each component is encoded with the Most Significant Byte first (network byte order).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
0 1 2 3
|
|
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
