Highly scalable, single/multi node, predictable and incremental unique id generator with zero allocation magic.
Via go packages:
go get github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v3
The method names and arities/args are stable now. No change should be expected
on the package for the version 3.x.x except any bug fixes.
Create a new package like below, and then call Next() or NextBytes() method:
package uniqid
// Import packages
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v3"
"github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v3/sequencer"
)
var m monoton.Monoton
// On init configure the monoton
func init() {
m = newIDGenerator()
}
func newIDGenerator() monoton.Monoton {
// Fetch your node id from a config server or generate from MAC/IP address
node := uint64(1)
// A unix time value which will be subtracted from the time sequence value.
// The initialTime value type corresponds to the sequencer type's time
// representation. If you are using Millisecond sequencer then it must be
// considered as Millisecond
// If we want to init the time with 2020-01-01 00:00:00 PST
initialTime := uint64(1577865600000)
// Configure monoton with a sequencer and the node
m, err = monoton.New(sequencer.NewMillisecond(), node, initialTime)
if err != nil{
panic(err)
}
return m
}
func Generate() string {
m.Next()
}
func GeneateBytes() [16]byte {
m.NextBytes()
}In any other package generate the ids like below:
import (
"fmt"
"uniqid" // your local uniqid package from your project
)
func main() {
for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
fmt.Println(uniqid.Generate())
}
}package main
// Import packages
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v3"
"github.com/mustafaturan/monoton/v3/sequencer"
)
func NewIDGenerator() monoton.Monoton {
// Fetch your node id from a config server or generate from MAC/IP address
node := uint64(1)
// A unix time value which will be subtracted from the time sequence value.
// The initialTime value type corresponds to the sequencer type's time
// representation. If you are using Millisecond sequencer then it must be
// considered as Millisecond
initialTime := uint64(0)
// Configure monoton with a sequencer and the node
m, err := monoton.New(sequencer.NewMillisecond(), node, initialTime)
if err != nil{
panic(err)
}
return m
}
func main() {
g := NewIDGenerator()
for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
fmt.Println(g.Next())
}
}The monoton package provides sequences based on the monotonic time which
represents the absolute elapsed wall-clock time since some arbitrary, fixed
point in the past. It isn't affected by changes in the system time-of-day clock.
Please refer to ADR 01 - Time for details and consequences.
Initial time value opens space for time value by subtracting the given value from the time sequence.
The monoton package converts all sequences into Base62 format. And Base62
only uses ASCII alpha-numeric chars to represent data which makes it easy to
read, predict the order by a human eye.
The total byte size is fixed to 16 bytes for all sequencers. And at least one byte is reserved to nodes.
Please refer to ADR 02 - Encoding for details and consequences.
The monoton package can be used on single/multiple nodes without the need for
machine coordination. It uses configured node identifier to generate ids by
attaching the node identifier to the end of the sequences.
The package comes with three pre-configured sequencers and Sequencer interface
to allow new sequencers.
The monoton package currently comes with Nanosecond, Millisecond and
Second sequencers. And it uses Millisecond sequencer by default. For each
sequencer, the byte orders are as following:
Second: 16 B => 6 B (seconds) + 6 B (counter) + 4 B (node)
Millisecond: 16 B => 8 B (milliseconds) + 4 B (counter) + 4 B (node)
Nanosecond: 16 B => 11 B (nanoseconds) + 2 B (counter) + 3 B (node)
Please refer to ADR 03 - Byte Sizes for details and consequences.
The sequencers can be extended for any other time format, sequence format by
implementing the monoton/sequencer.Sequencer interface.
