hashplate-cn

July 5, 2024 路 View on GitHub

A tiny and fast lib to generate human-readable hash from a string in the style of China license plates.

Use

pnpm add -D hashplate-cn

import { hashplate } from "hashplate-cn";

const hash = hashplate("Hello World!");
// returns "馃崲 娓滷路WGVA2 馃"

Format

The hash is generated in the following format:

<emoji> <2 uppercase letters>-<3 digits>-<2 uppercase letters> <emoji>

You can remove emoji by passing the second parameter.

import { hashplate } from "hashplate-cn";

const hash = hashplate("Hello World!", {
    hasEmoji: false,
});
// returns "娓滷路WGVA2"

Why?

I needed a way to generate a hash that was readable and easy to recognize to anonymize data. This is the result.
