> **Tiny, dependency-free Snowflake-style _ordered IDs_ and ultra-short random IDs for Python 3.9 +**

Need a sortable primary-key like Twitter’s Snowflake, or just a compact URL-safe slug?  
`short-unique-id` gives you both—without C extensions or heavy dependencies.

---

## ✨ Features
- **Ordered Snowflake IDs** – 64-bit, millisecond-precision, monotonic & k-sortable  
- **12-char random IDs** – base-62 tokens for URLs, files, IoT messages, …  
- **Stateless & thread-safe** – no Redis, no database round-trips  
- **Zero dependencies** – pure-Python, install in seconds  
- **Python 3.9 → 3.13** – fully typed, passes pytest & Ruff  
- **MIT licensed**

---

## 🚀 Install

```bash
pip install short-unique-id
```

Or grab the latest dev build:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/Purushot14/short-unique-id.git
```

---

## ⚡ Quick-start

```python
import short_unique_id as suid

# 12-character, URL-safe string (random)
slug = suid.generate_short_id()
print(slug)             # → "aZ8Ft1jK2L3q"

# Ordered, 64-bit Snowflake integer
snowflake = suid.get_next_snowflake_id()
print(snowflake)        # → 489683493715968001
```

Need higher entropy or longer range? Pass a custom `mult` (time multiplier):

```python
slug      = suid.generate_short_id(mult=1_000_000)
snowflake = suid.get_next_snowflake_id(mult=1_000_000)
```

## 🔬 Micro-benchmark<sup>†</sup>

| Generator             | Mean time / 1 000 ids | Bytes / id |
|-----------------------|-----------------------|-----------|
| **short-unique-id**   | **0.75 ms**           | 12        |
| `uuid.uuid4()`        | 1.90 ms               | 36        |
| `ulid-py` (ULID)      | 2.15 ms               | 26        |

## 🛠️ API Reference

| Function | Returns | Description | Key Args |
|----------|---------|-------------|----------|
| `generate_short_id(mult: int = 10_000) → str` | 12-char base‑62 string | Random but unique within the given time bucket. | `mult` – bucket size (↑ = ↑ entropy) |
| `get_next_snowflake_id(mult: int = 10_000) → int` | 64-bit int | Monotonic, timestamp‑encoded Snowflake ID. | `mult` – ticks per ms |

## 📚 When to use it

* Primary keys in distributed databases (fits in `BIGINT`)  
* Short share links or invite codes  
* File/folder names on S3 / GCS (lexicographic sort ≈ creation time)  
* Message IDs in event streams & IoT payloads  
* Anywhere you’d reach for UUIDs but want **shorter or ordered** IDs

---

## 🤝 Contributing

1. `git clone https://github.com/Purushot14/short-unique-id && cd short-unique-id`  
2. `poetry install` – sets up venv & dev tools  
3. `poetry run pytest` – all green? start hacking!  
4. Run `ruff check . --fix && ruff format .` before PRs  
5. Open a PR – stars and issues welcome ⭐

## 🛡️ Pre-commit (via Poetry)
[![pre-commit](https://img.shields.io/badge/pre--commit-enabled-brightgreen?logo=pre-commit&logoColor=white)](https://pre-commit.com/)

Make sure you’ve added **pre-commit** as a dev dependency:

```bash
poetry add --dev pre-commit
```

Set up the Git hook and run it against all files:

```bash
poetry run pre-commit install
poetry run pre-commit run --all-files
```
