RUUID

RUUID (Ruby UUID) parses, generates, and represents RFC 4122 universally unique identifiers. Currently, only v4 UUIDs can be generated by this library.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'ruuid'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install ruuid

require 'ruuid'

uuid = RUUID::UUID.new
# => <RUUID::UUID:0x70168845476220 data=7cc9f80c-c2e2-4d03-ad35-1e3112dc77de>

uuid.version
# => 4

uuid.to_s
# => "7cc9f80c-c2e2-4d03-ad35-1e3112dc77de"
uuid.to_s(:compact)
# => "7cc9f80cc2e24d03ad351e3112dc77de"
