unique_names_generator 3.1.2

Unique name generator package for generating random and unique names.

Unique Name Generator (Dart Package)

This Dart package specializes in generating random and unique names.

Note: This is a Dart adaptation of the npm package unique-names-generator.

🚀 Features

• Built-in Dictionaries: A variety of default dictionaries included.
• Customization: Ability to use custom dictionaries.

🕹️ How to Use

Configuration Options

Create a Config() object with the following parameters for the generator:

• length: Number of words to generate (default 3). Must match the number of dictionaries provided.
• separator: Character to separate words (default '_').
• dictionaries: Sources of words (choose from predefined or add custom ones).
• style: Desired style for word generation.

Style Options

• Style.lowerCase
• Style.capital
• Style.upperCase

Predefined Dictionaries

• adjectives
• animals
• colors
• countries
• languages
• names
• starWars

Example Code

Note: The length parameter must equal the number of dictionaries you pass. Since length defaults to 3, always either pass exactly 3 dictionaries or set length explicitly.

// length defaults to 3 — provide exactly 3 dictionaries
final generator = UniqueNamesGenerator(
      config: Config(
        dictionaries: [adjectives, animals, colors],
      ),
    );

final word = generator.generate();

// Or set length explicitly to match your dictionaries
final generator2 = UniqueNamesGenerator(
      config: Config(
        length: 2,
        dictionaries: [adjectives, animals],
      ),
    );

final word2 = generator2.generate();

Using a Random Seed

Pass an optional randomSeed to generate() to get reproducible output. Calling generate() with the same seed always returns the same name, which is useful for testing or deterministic name assignment.

final generator = UniqueNamesGenerator(
      config: Config(
        dictionaries: [adjectives, animals, colors]
      ),
    );

// Always produces the same result for a given seed
final word = generator.generate(randomSeed: 42);
