Generate consistent-codenames from any string (Heroku style, aka Haiku).
This is a Ruby port of Python's codenamize.
$ gem install concode
- Use as a Ruby library or from the command line
- Generate heroku-style / docker-style consistent codenames from any string (e.g. IP address, git commit hash)
- Control the number of words, and number of letters in each word
- Compatibility with Python's codenamize (both libraries will generate the same codes given the same string)
- Limitless combinations (over 1.7 million for 2 words, and 1.8 billion for 3 words)
