https://canihazusername.vercel.app/
🏗 Install
yarn add canihazusername
🚀 Quickstart
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'
const username = generate()
🎛 Customize
You can of course customize the generated username. The default format string is {character}_{english}.
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'
const username = generate('something-{character}_bot')
Basically you can use any string you want and everything between {somelist} will be replaced from a random word from the list called somelist.
There is a list of available words that you can use.
⛓ Combine multiple lists
You can also combine multiple (as many as you wish) lists into the same braket with the | charcter.
This will build a combined list and choose at random between all those words.
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'
const username = generate('{quantity|age|cats|}')
This example will choose a random word between the quantity, age and cats list.
✒️ Use you own lists
You can also add your own lists or owerwrite the built in one.
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'
const gits = ['gitlab', 'github', 'gitea']
const username = generate('{gits}', { lists: { gits } })
🔐 Reformats limit
For security reasons the default limit for the maximum reformats/insertions is set to 16.
If you use more than 16 {} you can increase them with the maxReformats option.
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'
const username = generate('{1} {2} ... {17}', { maxReformats: 16 }) // ❌ The last one will not be replaced
const username = generate('{1} {2} ... {17}', { maxReformats: 20 }) // ✅
