Turn ID numbers etc. into pronounceable words with Scala

SylCode

SylCode is a small piece of Scala code for presenting ID numbers as pronounceable "words", combinations of syllables, consisting of a consonant and one or two vowels.

SylCode is inspired by https://github.com/heharkon/readable-hash project and others.

Usage

To convert an ID number to a word:

SylCode.bigIntToSyllableString(BigInt(34873925))

will give you coded ID sixaaneefu.

If there's a need, you can decode it back to BigInt:

SylCode.syllableStringToBigInt("sixaaneefu")

will give you Some(BigInt(34873925)) or None, if it couldn't be decoded.
