Future

• CLI

  • add --parse option
    • JSON output

• Nested IDs

  const Bronze = require('bronze')
  const idGen = new Bronze({name: 'example'})
  
  const id1 = idGen.generate()
  console.log(id1)
  // > 1482810226160-0-14210-example-1a
  
  // Nested
  idGen.name = id1
  const id2 = idGen.generate()
  console.log(id2)
  // > 1482810226222-1-14210-1482810226160-0-14210-example-1a-1a
  
  Bronze.parse('1482810226222-1-14210-1482810226160-0-14210-example-1a-1a')
  // { valid: true,
  //   timestamp: 1482810226222,
  //   sequence: 1,
  //   pid: 14210,
  //   name: '1482810226160-0-14210-example-1a',
  //   spec: '1a' }
  
  // can also nest id2, id3, id4, id5, ...idN

  • the issue the moment is the possibility of collisions (no unique name)
  • would be pretty cool - imagine the convenience of nesting a video_id into a comment_id

• examples/

  • add a few examples, including a browser example
