## DESCRIPTION []()
|
||
|
||
This utility will generate "pet names", consisting of a random combination of an adverb, adjective, and an animal name. These are useful for unique hostnames or container names, for instance.
|
||
|
||
As such, PetName tries to follow the tenets of Zooko’s triangle. Names are:
|
||
|
||
- human meaningful
|
||
- decentralized
|
||
- secure
|
||
|
||

## CODE []()
|
||
|
||
Besides this shell utility, there are also native libraries: python-petname, python3-petname, and golang-petname. Here are some programmatic examples in code:
|
||
|
||
**Golang Example**
|
||
```golang
|
||
package main
|
||
|
||
import (
|
||
"flag"
|
||
"fmt"
|
||
"github.com/dustinkirkland/golang-petname"
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
var (
|
||
words = flag.Int("words", 2, "The number of words in the pet name")
|
||
separator = flag.String("separator", "-", "The separator between words in the pet name")
|
||
)
|
||
|
||
func main() {
|
||
flag.Parse()
|
||
fmt.Println(petname.Generate(\*words, \*separator))
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Python Example**
|
||
See: https://pypi.golang.org/pypi/petname
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ pip3 install petname
|
||
$ sudo apt-get install python3-petname
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
#!/usr/bin/python3
|
||
import argparse
|
||
import petname
|
||
|
||
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Generate human readable random names")
|
||
parser.add_argument("-w", "--words", help="Number of words in name, default=2", default=2)
|
||
parser.add_argument("-s", "--separator", help="Separator between words, default='-'", default="-")
|
||
parser.options = parser.parse_args()
|
||
|
||
print petname.Generate(int(parser.options.words), parser.options.separator)
|
||
```
