Outdated egg!

This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg, if it exists.

If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the egg index. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN.

UUID Variants

V1
DCE 1.1 variant UUID of version 1
V1-MC
DCE 1.1 variant UUID of version 1 with random MAC address
V3
DCE 1.1 variant UUID of version 3
V4
DCE 1.1 variant UUID of version 4

DCE 1.1 variant UUID of version 5

Predicates

uuid?

[procedure] (uuid? UUID) => boolean

Is UUID a uuid?

uuid-null?

uuid-nil?

[procedure] (uuid-null? UUID) => boolean
[procedure] (uuid-nil? UUID) => boolean

Is UUID the nil-uuid?

uuid-compare

[procedure] (uuid-compare UUID1 UUID2) => integer

Returns the comparison of UUID1 and UUID2 as -1, 0, or 1.

uuid=?

[procedure] (uuid=? UUID1 UUID2) => boolean

Are UUID1 and UUID2 equal?

uuid<?

[procedure] (uuid<? UUID1 UUID2) => boolean

Does UUID1 order below UUID2?

uuid>?

[procedure] (uuid>? UUID1 UUID2) => boolean

Does UUID1 order above UUID2?

uuid<=?

[procedure] (uuid<=? UUID1 UUID2) => boolean

Does UUID1 order below or the same as UUID2?

uuid>=?

[procedure] (uuid>=? UUID1 UUID2) => boolean

Does UUID1 order above or the same as UUID2?

Operations

uuid-clear!

[procedure] (uuid-clear! UUID) => uuid

Overwrites the existing UUID with the nil-uuid.

uuid-copy

uuid-clone

[procedure] (uuid-copy UUID) => uuid
[procedure] (uuid-clone UUID) => uuid

Returns a copy of the UUID.

make-uuid

[procedure] (make-uuid [VARIANT [NAMESPACE NAME]]) => uuid

Returns a uuid VARIANT, or the nil-uuid when missing.

The NAMESPACE and NAME are required for V3 and V5 variants.

VARIANT is a symbol.

NAMESPACE and NAME are string.

The symbols time and random are synonyms for V1 and V4, respectively.

string->uuid

[procedure] (string->uuid STRING) => uuid

Returns a new uuid from the external STRING representation.

uuid->string

[procedure] (uuid->string UUID) => string

Returns the external string representation of UUID.

uuid-load!

[procedure] (uuid-load! UUID [NAMESPACE]) => uuid

Overwrites the existing UUID with the NAMESPACE indicated uuid. When missing "nil" is assumed.

NAMESPACE is a string.

uuid-load

[procedure] (uuid-load [NAMESPACE]) => uuid

Returns a new uuid with the NAMESPACE uuid. When missing "nil" is assumed.

NAMESPACE is a string.

uuid-import

[procedure] (uuid-import STRING) => uuid

Returns a uuid from the external STRING representation.

uuid-import-binary

[procedure] (uuid-import-binary STRING) => uuid

Returns a uuid from the external STRING binary representation.

uuid-import-siv

[procedure] (uuid-import-siv STRING) => uuid

Returns a uuid from the external STRING single integer value representation.

uuid-export

[procedure] (uuid-export UUID) => string

Returns the external string representation of UUID.

uuid-export-binary

[procedure] (uuid-export-binary UUID) =>

Returns the external binary-string representation of UUID.

uuid-export-text

[procedure] (uuid-export-text UUID) => string

Returns the external text representation of UUID.

uuid-export-siv

[procedure] (uuid-export-siv UUID) => string

Returns the external single integer value representation of UUID.

Auxillary Procedures

uuid-version

[procedure] (uuid-version) => integer

Returns OSSP UUID Library version as an unsigned-long.

Errors

Errors generated by the OSSP UUID Library are signalled using a condition of (exn uuid), with properties message, and code.

Argument errors are signalled using error.

Usage

(require-extension uuid-ossp)
