Documentation

u2ug: UUID to Ubisoft game

Go

A Golang library that given a UUID (v1 or v4), will return the concatenation of a random adjective and Ubisoft game, or character.

Disclaimer

Highly inspired by https://github.com/CleverCloud/uuid_to_pokemon.rs, but in Go. Special thanks to the Clever Cloud teams ;)

It is an injective function, meaning that a given UUID will always produce the same name, but a given name could be the output of two different UUIDs.

It does should not matter since the original UUID must be kept as original source of uniqueness. This library is created in order to assign a reproducible human-readable name to a UUID.

How to use

Go library

go get github.com/ncomet/u2ug/ubi
import "github.com/ncomet/u2ug/ubi"

game, err := ubi.Game("d3acc428-3172-457a-9447-6a22263ef6b3")
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

fmt.Println(game) // "Selfish Space Junkies"

character, err := ubi.Character("d3acc428-3172-457a-9447-6a22263ef6b3")
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

fmt.Println(character) // "Selfish Selena"

WASM

Build the wasm version:

GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go build -o u2ug.wasm
cp "$(go env GOROOT)/misc/wasm/wasm_exec.js" .

Then use it in your webapp:

<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8"/>
    <script src="wasm_exec.js"></script>
    <script>
        const go = new Go();
        WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming(fetch("u2ug.wasm"), go.importObject).then((result) => {
            go.run(result.instance);
        });

        // call the functions available in window.ubiGame or window.ubiCharacter
        document.body.textContent = ubiGame("c74c3694-8040-4213-8a46-988ee9a42ef3");
    </script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

You can run an example avaible in /wasm_example:

GOOS=js GOARCH=wasm go build -o ./wasm_example/u2ug.wasm
cp "$(go env GOROOT)/misc/wasm/wasm_exec.js" ./wasm_example
