Data.UUID.V1

Description

RFC 4122 Version 1 UUID state machine.

The generated UUID is based on the hardware MAC address and the system clock.

If we cannot lookup the MAC address we seed the generator with a psuedo-random number.

Synopsis

nextUUID :: IO ( Maybe UUID )

Documentation

nextUUID :: IO ( Maybe UUID ) Source #

Returns a new UUID derived from the local hardware MAC address and the current system time. Is generated according to the Version 1 UUID specified in RFC 4122.

Returns Nothing if you request UUIDs too quickly.
