UUID

The uuid sub-command of nHash generates Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) with versions 1 to 5. UUIDs are commonly used as identifiers in computer systems and are designed to be unique across both space and time.

Usage

To use the uuid sub-command, type the following command in the terminal:

nhash uuid [options]

Options

The uuid sub-command supports the following options:

• --bracket: Generates UUIDs with brackets.
• --no-hyphen: Generates UUIDs without hyphens.
• -v, --version <All|V1|V2|V3|V4|V5>: Selects UUID version. By default, all versions are generated.
• -o, --output <output>: Specifies the file name to write output to.
• -?, -h, --help: Displays help and usage information.

Examples

Generate a version 1 UUID with hyphens:

nhash uuid -v V1

Generate a version 4 UUID without hyphens:

nhash uuid --version V4 --no-hyphen

Generate all versions of UUIDs with brackets and save the output to a file named "uuid.txt":

nhash uuid --bracket --output uuid.txt

Notes

• Use the --help option with any command to view help information specific to that command.
• Output from any command can be saved to a file using the --output option.
