SCRU128 ID is yet another attempt to supersede UUID in the use cases that need decentralized, globally unique time-ordered identifiers. SCRU128 is inspired by ULID and KSUID and has the following features:
import { scru128, scru128String } from "scru128";
// generate a new identifier object
const x = scru128();
console.log(String(x)); // e.g. "00S6GVKR1MH58KE72EJD87SDOO"
console.log(BigInt(x.toHex())); // as a 128-bit unsigned integer
// generate a textual representation directly
console.log(scru128String()); // e.g. "00S6GVKR3F7R79I72EJF0J4RGC"
See SCRU128 Specification for details.
