XstarS.GuidModule 2.13.0

F# GUID Module

Provides RFC 4122 (UUID) and RFC 9562 (UUIDREV) compliant GUID operations for F#. The orders of input parameters are adjusted to match F# pipeline patterns.

Features:

• Full support for generating GUID version 1 through 8.
• Support for getting and setting fields of GUID version 1 through 8.
• Fully compatible with Native AOT (including reflection-free mode).

RFC 4122 UUID Standard

RFC 4122 defines the following five versions of UUID:

• Version 1: The time-based version, contains a 60-bit timestamp and a 12-bit MAC address.
• Version 2: DCE Security version, contains a 28-bit timestamp, a 12-bit MAC address and a 32-bit local ID.
• Version 3: The name-based version, using MD5 hashing to compute the hash of the namespace and name.
• Version 4: The randomly or pseudo-randomly generated version, equivalent to Guid.NewGuid() in .NET.
• Version 5: The name-based version, using SHA-1 hashing to compute the hash of the namespace and name.

There is also a special Nil UUID whose bytes are all 0x00s, which is equivalent to Guid.Empty in .NET.

• RFC 4122 UUID Standard
• DCE Security UUID Standard

RFC 9562 UUID Standard

RFC 9562 defines the following three versions of UUID:

• Version 6: The reordered time-based version, field-compatible with Version 1 except that the timestamp is reordered to big-endian order.
• Version 7: The Unix Epoch time-based version, contains a 48-bit timestamp and a 74-bit random number, field-compatible with ULID.
• Version 8: Reserved for custom UUID formats, fields except the variant and version are user-defined.

There is also a special Max UUID whose bytes are all 0xffs, which is equivalent to Guid.AllBitsSet in .NET 9.0 or greater.

• RFC 9562 UUID Standard

F# GUID Module Usage

Core module: XNetEx.FSharp.Core.Guid.

RFC-compliant GUID Generation

open System
open XNetEx.FSharp.Core

// Load generator state from file.
let loadResult = Guid.loadState "state.bin"

// Generate time-based GUID.
let guidV1 = Guid.newV1 () // 3944a871-aa14-11ed-8791-a9a9a46de54f
// Generate randomized GUID.
let guidV4 = Guid.newV4 () // 0658f02d-45a4-4c25-b9d0-8ddbda3c3e08
// Generate Unix time-based GUID.
let guidV7 = Guid.newV7 () // 018640c6-0dc9-7189-a644-31acdba4cabc

// Generate name-based GUID.
let guidV3 = Guid.newV3S Guid.nsDns "github.com"
// 7f4771a0-1982-373d-928f-d31140a51652
let guidV5 = "github.com" |> Guid.newV5S Guid.nsDns
// 6fca3dd2-d61d-58de-9363-1574b382ea68

// Build custom state time-based GUID sequence.
let guidV1CSeq =
    Guid.customStateSeq Guid.Version.Version1 {
        timeFunc (fun () -> DateTime.UtcNow + TimeSpan.FromHours(8))
        clockSeq 0x0123s
        nodeId (Array.init 6 (((+) 1) >> byte))
    }
let guidV1C = guidV1CSeq |> Seq.head
// 2a85a1d1-14c5-11f0-8123-010203040506

// Build time-based GUID.
let guid6 =
    Guid.emptyOf Guid.Version.Version6
    |> Guid.replaceTime DateTime.UtcNow
    |> Guid.replaceClockSeq 0x0123s
    |> Guid.replaceNodeId (Array.init 6 (((+) 1) >> byte))
    // 1edaa178-dec2-6054-8123-010203040506

// Build Unix time-based GUID.
let guid7 =
    Guid.newV4 ()
    |> Guid.replaceVersion Guid.Version.Version7
    |> Guid.replaceTime DateTime.UtcNow
    // 018640db-de47-7ab9-bf00-6119a1033265

Common GUID Operations

open XNetEx.FSharp.Core

// GUID parsing and formatting.
let guid1 = Guid.parse "6ba7b810-9dad-11d1-80b4-00c04fd430c8"

printfn "%s" (guid2 |> Guid.format "X")

// GUID construction and deconstruction.
let guid3 =
    Guid.ofFields
        0x00112233 0x4455s 0x6677s (0x88uy, 0x99uy)
        (0xAAuy, 0xBBuy, 0xCCuy, 0xDDuy, 0xEEuy, 0xFFuy)

let guid4 =
    Array.map byte

    |> Guid.ofBytesUuid
let guid4Bytes = Guid.toBytes guid4
assert (guid3 = guid4)

        [| 0x33; 0x22; 0x11; 0x00; 0x55; 0x44; 0x77; 0x66
