ShortUUID is a Python library that generates shorter, URL-safe UUIDs. Unlike standard UUIDs which are 36 characters long, ShortUUID creates compact identifiers that are perfect for use in URLs, database keys, and anywhere you need unique identifiers that are both shorter and URL-safe. The library provides a simple API for generating and working with these compact UUIDs while maintaining uniqueness and compatibility with standard UUIDs.
This compiler includes ShortUUID, enabling you to generate shorter, URL-safe UUIDs directly in your browser. You can create compact unique identifiers, convert between standard UUIDs and short UUIDs, generate random short UUIDs, and work with custom alphabets. The platform provides all the tools you need for comprehensive UUID generation including URL-safe encoding, alphabet customization, and bidirectional conversion between standard and short UUID formats. You can also upload and use files or folders directly in your code for UUID generation and identifier management workflows. This compiler is online and completely free to use.
Our comprehensive example collection covers essential UUID generation techniques including basic short UUID creation, generating multiple UUIDs, converting between standard and short UUIDs, using custom alphabets, and generating URL-safe identifiers. You'll also learn how to use short UUIDs in practical scenarios like generating unique IDs for database records, creating short links, and managing unique identifiers in web applications. The examples demonstrate practical applications commonly used in web development, database design, and distributed systems.
