FriendlyKey
FriendlyKey lets you generate human friendly random strings. It generates random alphanumeric strings without letters and digits that are hard to distinguish from each other, such as I, l and 1. You can use FriendlyKey when you need random strings that you don't want your users to copy and paste but rather enter by themselves, like product keys and random passwords.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'friendly_key'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install friendly_key
Usage
# Generate a rondom string
FriendlyKey.generate # => "QNZD9H8FU5UDM848"
# Specify the length of a random string
FriendlyKey.generate(length: 8) #=> "9AFN87ES"
# Include small letters
FriendlyKey.generate(small_letters: true) # => "qK8fLq2REprjHxvG"
