Nomen est Omen

"Your name is your destiny", so be sure you pick a good name. This Java library helps with generating some super-awesome random names that you can use for some unique IDs :)

Generated names may consist of:

• adjective (1400+)
• animals (380+)
• color name (80+)
• nouns (850+)
• person name (140+ names)
• superb name (10+ names)
• pokemon name (700+ names)
• superheroes name (1800+ names)
• count (any number > 0)

For example, you can get names such: hungry_navy_babbage or dreamy-cray. Isn't this super great?

Usage

It's complicated.

1. Add dependencies

In your Gradle or Maven project, add:

com.oblac:nomen-est-omen:<version>

2. Use it

If you just want a short name (adjective and person name):

Nomen.randomName();

If you want to build your own template, e.g.:

Nomen.est().adjective().color().person().get();

Variables are set using withXxx() methods:

Nomen.est().adjective().color().person().withSpace('/').get();

That is all.

3. Optimise if you will

Templates can be created once:

Nomen uigen = Nomen.est().adjective().person();
...
String id1 = uigen.get();
String id2 = uigen.get();

Nice!

Thanx to Docker

I am blatantly stealing idea from Docker. It is so beautiful, that it deserves Java port :)
