base64uuid

Base64Uuid type for representing base64url-encoded UUIDs.

The main motivation for using these is that their representation is slightly more compact compared to standard UUID string representation, and they look a bit better in URLs.

In addition, any UUIDs generated by this crate are chosen such that their string representations do not start with a dash (-), in order to avoid conflicts if they're used as command-line arguments.

Feature flags

  • creation: Allows creating Base64Uuid and Uuid directly (enabled by default)
  • fp-bindgen: Allows using Base64Uuid within fp-bindgen structs
