Nanoid type. Represents a generated nanoid.

Creates a nanoid from a given list of integers. Generally you want to create a randomness pool in JS using something like Array.from(crypto.getRandomValues(new Uint8Array(21*21*7))). See the examples on how to do this properly. Most nanoids consist of 21 bytes.

nanoid [ 0, 1, 2 ] == "abc"

The length of the pool determines the length of the output.

Generate nanoids using the standard values and elm/random

import Random
import Nanoid exposing (Nanoid)


Random.step Nanoid.generator (Random.initialSeed 0) == "qBrbY8E1PkuPSRjijxsab"

Generate a nanoid using a custom charmap.

import Array


nanoidWithOptions (Array.fromList ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']) [1, 2, 3] == "abc"

String representation of a nanoid.

Construct a nanoid. Useful since nanoids are customizable with alphabets & sizes.
