It supports DCE 1.1 variant UUIDs of version 1 (time +and node based), version 3 (name based, MD5), version 4 (random number +based) and version 5 (name based, SHA-1). Additional API bindings are +provided for the languages ISO-C++:1998, Perl:5 and PHP:4/5. Optional +backward compatibility exists for the ISO-C DCE-1.1 and Perl Data::UUID +APIs. + +UUIDs are 128 bit numbers which are intended to have a high likelihood +of uniqueness over space and time and are computationally difficult +to guess. They are globally unique identifiers which can be locally +generated without contacting a global registration authority. UUIDs +are intended as unique identifiers for both mass tagging objects +with an extremely short lifetime and to reliably identifying very +persistent objects across a network. + +This is the command line interface (CLI) of B. For a +detailed description of UUIDs see the documentation of the application +programming interface (API) in uuid(3). + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over 3 + +=item B<-v> I + +Sets the version of the generated DCE 1.1 variant UUID. Supported +are I "C<1>", "C<3>", "C<4>" and "C<5>". The default is "C<1>". + +For version 3 and version 5 UUIDs the additional command line arguments +I and I have to be given. The I is either +a UUID in string representation or an identifier for internally +pre-defined namespace UUIDs (currently known are "C", +"C", "C", and "C"). The I is a string of +arbitrary length. + +=item B<-m> + +Forces the use of a random multi-cast MAC address when generating +version 1 UUIDs. By default the real physical MAC address of the system +is used. + +=item B<-n> I + +Generate I UUIDs instead of just a single one (the default). + +=item B<-1> + +If option B<-n> is used with a I greater than C<1>, then this +option can enforce the reset the UUID context for each generated UUID. +This makes no difference for I C<3>, C<4> and C<5> UUIDs. But +version C<1> UUIDs are based on the previously generated UUID which is +remembered in the UUID context of the API. Option B<-1> deletes the +remembered UUID on each iteration. + +=item B<-F> I + +Representation format for importing or exporting an UUID. The +following (case insensitive) format identifiers are currently recognized: + +=over 4 + +=item C (binary representation) + +This is the raw 128 bit network byte order binary representation of a +UUID. Example is the octet stream C<0xF8 0x1D 0x4F 0xAE 0x7D 0xEC 0x11 +0xD0 0xA7 0x65 0x00 0xA0 0xC9 0x1E 0x6B 0xF6>. + +=item C (string representation) + +This is the 36 character hexadecimal ASCII string representation of a +UUID. Example is the string "C". + +=item C (single integer value representation) + +This is the maximum 39 character long single integer +value representation of a UUID. Example is the string +"C<329800735698586629295641978511506172918>". + +=back + +=item B<-o> I + +Write output to I instead of to F. + +=item B<-d> + +Decode a given UUID (given as a command line argument or if the command +line argument is "C<->" the UUID is read from F) and dump textual +information about the UUID. + +=back + +=head1 EXAMPLES + + # generate DCE 1.1 v1 UUID (time and node based) + $ uuid -v1 + 01c47915-4777-11d8-bc70-0090272ff725 + + # decode and dump DCE 1.1 v1 UUID (time and node based) + $ uuid -d 01c47915-4777-11d8-bc70-0090272ff725 + encode: STR: 01c47915-4777-11d8-bc70-0090272ff725 + SIV: 2349374037528578887923094374772111141 + decode: variant: DCE 1.1, ISO/IEC 11578:1996 + version: 1 (time and node based) + content: time: 2004-01-15 16:22:26.376322.1 UTC + clock: 15472 (usually random) + node: 00:90:27:2f:f7:25 (global unicast) + + # generate DCE 1.1 v3 UUID (name based) + $ uuid -v3 ns:URL http://www.ossp.org/ + 02d9e6d5-9467-382e-8f9b-9300a64ac3cd + + # decode and dump DCE 1.1 v3 UUID (name based) + $ uuid -d 02d9e6d5-9467-382e-8f9b-9300a64ac3cd + encode: STR: 02d9e6d5-9467-382e-8f9b-9300a64ac3cd + SIV: 3789866285607910888100818383505376205 + decode: variant: DCE 1.1, ISO/IEC 11578:1996 + version: 3 (name based, MD5) + content: 02:D9:E6:D5:94:67:08:2E:0F:9B:93:00:A6:4A:C3:CD + (not decipherable: MD5 message digest only) + + # generate DCE 1.1 v4 UUID 4 (random data based) + $ uuid -v4 + eb424026-6f54-4ef8-a4d0-bb658a1fc6cf + + # decode and dump DCE 1.1 v4 UUID 4 (random data based) + $ uuid -d eb424026-6f54-4ef8-a4d0-bb658a1fc6cf + encode: STR: eb424026-6f54-4ef8-a4d0-bb658a1fc6cf + SIV: 312712571721458096795100956955942831823 + decode: variant: DCE 1.1, ISO/IEC 11578:1996 + version: 4 (random data based) + content: EB:42:40:26:6F:54:0E:F8:24:D0:BB:65:8A:1F:C6:CF + (no semantics: random data only) + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +uuid(3), OSSP::uuid(3). + +=cut + -- cgit
