devel/p5-Data-ULID - The NetBSD Packages Collection

Perl 5 module for Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier ULID

This is an implementation in Perl of the ULID identifier type
introduced by Alizain Feerasta. The original implementation (in
Javascript) can be found at https://github.com/alizain/ulid.

ULIDs have several advantages over UUIDs in many contexts. The
advantages include:

- Lexicographically sortable
- The canonical representation is shorter than UUID (26 vs 36
  characters)
- Case insensitve and safely chunkable.
- URL-safe
- Timestamp can always be easily extracted if so desired.
- Limited compatibility with UUIDs, since both are 128-bit formats.
  Some conversion back and forth is possible.
