<div class='docblock'><p>Generate and parse UUIDs</p>
<p>Provides support for Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs). A UUID is a
unique 128-bit number, stored as 16 octets. UUIDs are used to assign
unique identifiers to entities without requiring a central allocating
authority.</p>
<p>They are particularly useful in distributed systems, though can be used in
disparate areas, such as databases and network protocols. Typically a UUID
is displayed in a readable string form as a sequence of hexadecimal digits,
separated into groups by hyphens.</p>
<p>The uniqueness property is not strictly guaranteed, however for all
practical purposes, it can be assumed that an unintentional collision would
be extremely unlikely.</p>
<h1 id="dependencies" class="section-header"><a href="#dependencies">Dependencies</a></h1>
<p>This crate by default has no dependencies and is <code>#![no_std]</code> compatible.
The following Cargo features, however, can be used to enable various pieces
of functionality.</p>
<ul>
<li><code>use_std</code> - adds in functionality available when linking to the standard
library, currently this is only the <code>impl Error for ParseError</code>.</li>
<li><code>v1</code> - adds the <code>Uuid::new_v1</code> function and the ability to create a V1
using a <code>UUIDV1Context</code> and a timestamp from <code>time::timespec</code></li>
<li><code>v3</code> - adds the <code>Uuid::new_v3</code> function and the ability to create a V3
UUID based on the MD5 hash of some data.</li>
<li><code>v4</code> - adds the <code>Uuid::new_v4</code> function and the ability to randomly
generate a <code>Uuid</code>.</li>
<li><code>v5</code> - adds the <code>Uuid::new_v5</code> function and the ability to create a V5
UUID based on the SHA1 hash of some data.</li>
<li><code>rustc-serialize</code> - adds the ability to serialize and deserialize a <code>Uuid</code>
using the <code>rustc-serialize</code> crate.</li>
<li><code>serde</code> - adds the ability to serialize and deserialize a <code>Uuid</code> using the
<code>serde</code> crate.</li>
</ul>
<p>By default, <code>uuid</code> can be depended on with:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[dependencies]
uuid = &quot;0.4&quot;
</code></pre>
<p>To activate various features, use syntax like:</p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[dependencies]
uuid = { version = &quot;0.4&quot;, features = [&quot;serde&quot;, &quot;v4&quot;] }
</code></pre>
<h1 id="examples" class="section-header"><a href="#examples">Examples</a></h1>
<p>To parse a UUID given in the simple format and print it as a urn:</p>
<pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
<span class="kw">use</span> <span class="ident">uuid</span>::<span class="ident">Uuid</span>;
<span class="kw">fn</span> <span class="ident">main</span>() {
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">my_uuid</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">Uuid</span>::<span class="ident">parse_str</span>(<span class="string">&quot;936DA01F9ABD4d9d80C702AF85C822A8&quot;</span>).<span class="ident">unwrap</span>();
<span class="macro">println</span><span class="macro">!</span>(<span class="string">&quot;{}&quot;</span>, <span class="ident">my_uuid</span>.<span class="ident">urn</span>());
}</pre>
<p>To create a new random (V4) UUID and print it out in hexadecimal form:</p>
<div class='information'><div class='tooltip ignore'><span class='tooltiptext'>This example is not tested</span></div></div><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered ignore">
<span class="comment">// Note that this requires the `v4` feature enabled in the uuid crate.</span>
<span class="kw">use</span> <span class="ident">uuid</span>::<span class="ident">Uuid</span>;
<span class="kw">fn</span> <span class="ident">main</span>() {
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">my_uuid</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">Uuid</span>::<span class="ident">new_v4</span>();

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
