Class Method Details

.uuid_from_hash(hash_class, uuid_namespace, name) ⇒ Object

Generates a v5 non-random UUID (Universally Unique IDentifier).

Using Digest::MD5 generates version 3 UUIDs; Digest::SHA1 generates version 5 UUIDs. uuid_from_hash always generates the same UUID for a given name and namespace combination.

See RFC 4122 for details of UUID at: www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt
