Module unique_id::sequence

An implementation that provides monotonically increasing integer values.

While SequenceGenerator is thread safe, and it's shared implementation assures that IDs are generated uniquely among threads, it is always initialized to the same value when a process starts. It provides an implementation of the trait GeneratorFromSeed that allows a process to initialize the counter with a specific value.

Example

use unique_id::Generator;
use unique_id::sequence::SequenceGenerator;

let gen = SequenceGenerator::default();
let id = gen.next_id();

Structs

SequenceGenerator

Generates monotonically increasing i64 values. Not that only values >= 0 will be returned such that any negative value can be assumed to be invalid.
