Go Nanoid
This package is Go implementation of ai's nanoid!
Safe. It uses cryptographically strong random generator.
Compact. It uses more symbols than UUID (A-Za-z0-9_-)
and has the same number of unique options in just 22 symbols instead of 36.
Fast. Nanoid is as fast as UUID but can be used in URLs.

$ go get github.com/matoous/go-nanoid
Usage
Generate ID
id, err := gonanoid.Nanoid()
Generate ID with custom alphabet and length
