TimeUuid¶

types~TimeUuid(date, ticks, nodeId, clockId)

Represents an immutable version 1 universally unique identifier (UUID). A UUID represents a 128-bit value.

Constructor¶

new TimeUuid(date, ticks, nodeId, clockId)

Creates a new instance of Uuid based on the parameters provided according to rfc4122. If any of the arguments is not provided, it will be randomly generated, except for the date that will use the current date.

If nodeId and/or clockId portions are not provided, the constructor will generate them using crypto.randomBytes(). As it's possible that crypto.randomBytes() might block, it's recommended that you use the callback-based version of the static methods fromDate() or now()in that case.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`date`		The date for the instance. If not provided, current Date will be used.
`ticks`		A number from 0 to 10000 representing the 100-nanoseconds units for this instance to fill in the information not available in the Date, as Ecmascript Dates have only milliseconds precision.
`nodeId`		A 6-length Buffer or string of 6 ascii characters representing the node identifier, ie: 'host01'.
`clockId`		A 2-length Buffer or string of 6 ascii characters representing the clock identifier.

equals(other)

Compares this object to the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null, is a UUID object, and contains the same value, bit for bit, as this UUID.
