README

Generate Heroku-like random names to use in your PHP applications.

This package has been forked from the original HaikunatorPHP repository and modified to work with the Yii2 autoloader.

Installation

composer require derekisbusy/yii2-haikunator

Usage

Haikunator is pretty simple.

use derekisbusy\haikunator\Haikunator;

// default usage
Haikunator::haikunate() // => "wispy-dust-1337"

// custom length (default=4)
Haikunator::haikunate(["tokenLength" => 6]) // => "patient-king-887265"

// use hex instead of numbers
Haikunator::haikunate(["tokenHex" => true]) // => "purple-breeze-98e1"

// use custom chars instead of numbers/hex
Haikunator::haikunate(["tokenChars" => "HAIKUNATE"]) // => "summer-atom-IHEA"

// don't include a token
Haikunator::haikunate(["tokenLength" => 0]) // => "cold-wildflower"

// use a different delimiter
Haikunator::haikunate(["delimiter" => "."]) // => "restless.sea.7976"

// no token, space delimiter
Haikunator::haikunate(["tokenLength" => 0, "delimiter" => " "]) // => "delicate haze"

// no token, empty delimiter
Haikunator::haikunate(["tokenLength" => 0, "delimiter" => ""]) // => "billowingleaf"

// custom nouns and/or adjectives
Haikunator::$ADJECTIVES = ["red", "green", "blue"];
Haikunator::$NOUNS = ["reindeer"];
Haikunator::haikunate(); // => "blue-reindeer-4252"

Options

The following options are available:

Haikunator::haikunate([
  "delimiter" => "-",
  "tokenLength" => 4,
  "tokenHex" => false,
  "tokenChars" => "0123456789"
]);

// get/set nouns or adjectives
Haikunator::$ADJECTIVES
Haikunator::$NOUNS

If tokenHex is true, it overrides any tokens specified in tokenChars
