An universally unique identifier (UUID) generator using Swift.
Check out project's GitHub repo here.
The source code served as an example, it is, by no means, a commercial grade product. It might contain errors or flaws, and it was created for demonstration purpose only.
Swift UUID is a sample project to demonstrate how you can generate UUIDs with Swift, ported from OpenUUID which was written in Objective-C.
Currently Swift UUID supports the following UUID formats:
- Random UUID:
e.g. D6050BE9-63DE-4EA2-B625-90BD0E90552B - Hardware UUID: Hardare UUID that can be found in the system profiler.
- System Serial Number: Hardware serial number that can be found in the "About this Mac" window.
More information about UUID can be found on Wikipedia.
Plases note that, Swift is still in beta stage, the API might be different when it's released this fall with OS X Yosemite.
