How to create a version 3 or version 5 UUID implementation in javascript?


Is there a library available that does that? I referred to this answer but it only has other versions not version 3 or 5.

Create GUID / UUID in JavaScript?


Solution

  • A useful uuid implementation in JS is the package:

    https://www.npmjs.com/package/uuid

    why?
    weekly downloads
    13,478,626
    

    also: Support for version 1, 3, 4 and 5 UUIDs

    In the future, you could search NPM yourself and take as a reliable metric the weekly downloads.
