A utility for generating monotonically increasing unique event ids across a network of services.
Note: This is not an official Google product.
An eventId uniquely identifies an event across a network of services. It is globally unique, and is monotically increasing locally. This makes eventids useful for lexically comparable identifiers for events in a distributed system.
const EventId = require('eventid');
// Instantiate a generator.
const eventId = new EventId();
const id1 = eventId.new();
const id2 = eventId.new();
