random-string

A simple crate that allows you to generate random strings based on a given charset and length.

Description

This is just a test crate for my personal use, and I don't think that there would be more updates.
If you would like to change or add something, or even create a better version feel free to do so.

Usage

Add a dependence in Cargo.toml toml [dependencies] random-string = "0.1.1"

Functions

RandomString::get_charset(Charset)
Get a ready charset by passing an enum Charset.
The output is a String containing certain characters that will be used in the generation.

RandomString::generate(i32, String) - Generate a random string with a certain length as i32 and based on a string charset. The output is a Result with the generated String if succeeded, or an error message (static str) if failed.

Every charset is a String containing characters that you would like to use in generation process. Remember that it can't be empty.

Enums

Use this enum in RandomString::get_charset function to get a charset. rust enum Charset { ASCII, // ASCII characters Letters, // All lowercase and uppercase letters LettersLowercase, // Lowercase letters from a to z LettersUppercase, // Uppercase letters from A to Z Numbers, // Numbers from 0 to 9 Special // All the special characters I could find on my keyboard }

Examples

```rust use random_string::{RandomString, Charset};

fn main() {

let charset = RandomString::get_charset(Charset::Numbers);
// or
let charset = "1234567890".to_string();

match RandomString::generate(6, charset) {
    Ok(string) => println!("{}", string),
    Err(msg) => println!("Error: {}", msg)
}

} ```
