Module cuid 

Generate the value for @default(cuid()) (cratestack#1209).

The id has cuid2’s default shape: 24 characters, a lowercase letter first, then lowercase letters and digits. That is what the Cuid scalar accepts (crate::error::parse_cuid) and what other cuid2 producers emit, so ids from either source mix in one column.

It is drawn straight from a CSPRNG rather than through the cuid2 algorithm’s hash of time, counter and host fingerprint. That keeps the property cuid2 exists for (ids that cannot be guessed and do not collide: about 124 random bits) without its dependencies. The cuid2 crate needs getrandom 0.3, which does not build for wasm32-unknown-unknown without extra configuration, and the embedded runtime runs there. The randomness comes from uuid’s v4 generator, which every runtime already depends on and which the embedded runtime already wires to the browser’s crypto.getRandomValues on wasm.

Functions
