Formats generated random numbers in many manners. When 'random/formatter'
is required, several methods are added to empty core module Random::Formatter
, making them available as Random’s instance and module methods.
Standard library SecureRandom
is also extended with the module, and the methods described below are available as a module methods in it.
Generate random hexadecimal strings:
require 'random/formatter' prng = Random.new prng.hex(10) #=> "52750b30ffbc7de3b362" prng.hex(10) #=> "92b15d6c8dc4beb5f559" prng.hex(13) #=> "39b290146bea6ce975c37cfc23" # or just Random.hex #=> "1aed0c631e41be7f77365415541052ee"
Generate random base64 strings:
prng.base64(10) #=> "EcmTPZwWRAozdA==" prng.base64(10) #=> "KO1nIU+p9DKxGg==" prng.base64(12) #=> "7kJSM/MzBJI+75j8" Random.base64(4) #=> "bsQ3fQ=="
Generate random binary strings:
prng.random_bytes(10) #=> "\016\t{\370g\310pbr\301" prng.random_bytes(10) #=> "\323U\030TO\234\357\020\a\337" Random.random_bytes(6) #=> "\xA1\xE6Lr\xC43"
Generate alphanumeric strings:
prng.alphanumeric(10) #=> "S8baxMJnPl" prng.alphanumeric(10) #=> "aOxAg8BAJe" Random.alphanumeric #=> "TmP9OsJHJLtaZYhP"
Generate UUIDs:
prng.uuid #=> "2d931510-d99f-494a-8c67-87feb05e1594" prng.uuid #=> "bad85eb9-0713-4da7-8d36-07a8e4b00eab" Random.uuid #=> "f14e0271-de96-45cc-8911-8910292a42cd"
All methods are available in the standard library SecureRandom
, too:
SecureRandom.hex #=> "05b45376a30c67238eb93b16499e50cf"
Generate a random number in the given range as Random
does
prng.random_number #=> 0.5816771641321361 prng.random_number(1000) #=> 485 prng.random_number(1..6) #=> 3 prng.rand #=> 0.5816771641321361 prng.rand(1000) #=> 485 prng.rand(1..6) #=> 3
Mixin methods for local and remote Gem::Command

SSLServer
represents a TCP/IP server socket with Secure Sockets Layer.
Raised when an operation would resize or re-allocate a locked buffer.
Raised when the buffer cannot be allocated for some reason, or you try to use a buffer that’s not allocated.
An integer field represents an integer value. It is used to represent the value of an integer literal, the depth of local variables, and the number of a numbered reference. It resolves to an Integer
in Ruby.
