class Example
  JSON.mapping id: UUID
end

example = Example.from_json(%({"id": "ba714f86-cac6-42c7-8956-bcf5105e1b81"}))

uuid = UUID.new("87b3042b-9b9a-41b7-8b15-a93d3f17025e")
uuid.to_json # => "87b3042b-9b9a-41b7-8b15-a93d3f17025e"

Constructors

• .new(bytes : StaticArray(UInt8, 16), variant : UUID::Variant? = nil, version : UUID::Version? = nil)

  Generates UUID from bytes, applying version and variant to the UUID if present.

• .new(slice : Slice(UInt8), variant = nil, version = nil)

  Creates UUID from 16-bytes slice.

• .new(uuid : UUID, variant = nil, version = nil)

  Creates another UUID which is a copy of uuid, but allows overriding variant or version.

• .new(value : String, variant = nil, version = nil)

  Creates new UUID by decoding value string from hyphenated (ie.

• .new(pull : JSON::PullParser)

Class Method Summary

• .empty
• .random(random = Random::Secure, variant = Variant::RFC4122, version = Version::V4)
