Package Exports

futoin-uuid
futoin-uuid/UUIDTool.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (futoin-uuid) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

About

A primitive wrapper of uuid package for UUID v4 generation with Base64 encoding.

The reason is to get a universal and short UUID representation in printable characters which can be efficiently used in JSON and databases without special UUID type.

It produces only 22 characters instead of canonical 36 hexdecimal chars with separators.
