我想了解布罗法的答案,所以我扩展了它并添加了评论:

var uuid = function () {
    return 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'.replace(
        /[xy]/g,
        function (match) {
            /*
            * Create a random nibble. The two clever bits of this code:
            *
            * - Bitwise operations will truncate floating point numbers
            * - For a bitwise OR of any x, x | 0 = x
            *
            * So:
            *
            * Math.random * 16
            *
            * creates a random floating point number
            * between 0 (inclusive) and 16 (exclusive) and
            *
            * | 0
            *
            * truncates the floating point number into an integer.
            */
            var randomNibble = Math.random() * 16 | 0;

            /*
            * Resolves the variant field. If the variant field (delineated
            * as y in the initial string) is matched, the nibble must

            *
            * 10xx
            *
            * This is achieved by performing the following operations in

            * - x | 0x8, which is equivalent to x + 8

            */
            var nibble = (match == 'y') ?
                (randomNibble & 0x3 | 0x8) :
                randomNibble;

            /*
            * Ensure the nibble integer is encoded as base 16 (hexadecimal).
            */
            return nibble.toString(16);
        }
    );
};

根據 RFC 4122 的 UUID (Universally Unique IDentifier),也被稱為 GUID (Globally Unique IDentifier),是為提供某些獨特性保證而設計的識別。

虽然可以在JavaScript代码的几个行中实施符合RFC的UUID(例如,请参见 @broofa的答案,下面),但有几个常见的漏洞:

无效 ID 格式(UUID 必须是“xxxxxx-xxxx-Mxxx-Nxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx”的格式,其中 x 是 [0-9, a-f] M 是 [1-5] 的格式,而 N 是 [8, 9, a 或 b] 使用低质量的随机性来源(如 Math.random)

因此,开发人员为生产环境编写代码被鼓励使用严格,良好的实施,如新模块。

以下是基于 RFC 4122 的某些代码,第 4.4 节(从真实随机或偏随机号创建 UUID 的算法)。

function createUUID() {
    // http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt
    var s = [];
    var hexDigits = "0123456789abcdef";
    for (var i = 0; i < 36; i++) {
        s[i] = hexDigits.substr(Math.floor(Math.random() * 0x10), 1);
    }
    s[14] = "4";  // bits 12-15 of the time_hi_and_version field to 0010
    s[19] = hexDigits.substr((s[19] & 0x3) | 0x8, 1);  // bits 6-7 of the clock_seq_hi_and_reserved to 01
    s[8] = s[13] = s[18] = s[23] = "-";

    var uuid = s.join("");
    return uuid;
}

var uuid = function() {
    var buf = new Uint32Array(4);
    window.crypto.getRandomValues(buf);
    var idx = -1;
    return 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'.replace(/[xy]/g, function(c) {
        idx++;
        var r = (buf[idx>>3] >> ((idx%8)*4))&15;
        var v = c == 'x' ? r : (r&0x3|0x8);
        return v.toString(16);
    });
};

这个版本是基于Briguy37的答案和一些Bitwise运营商从泡沫中提取Nibble大小的窗户。

它应该遵守RFC类型4(随机)方案,因为我上次遇到麻烦与Java的UUID不符合的UUID。

最好的方式:

function(
  a, b               // Placeholders
){
  for(               // Loop :)
      b = a = '';    // b - result , a - numeric variable
      a++ < 36;      //
      b += a*51&52   // If "a" is not 9 or 14 or 19 or 24
                  ?  //  return a random number or 4
           (
               a^15              // If "a" is not 15,
                  ?              // generate a random number from 0 to 15
               8^Math.random() *
               (a^20 ? 16 : 4)   // unless "a" is 20, in which case a random number from 8 to 11,
                  :
               4                 //  otherwise 4
           ).toString(16)
                  :
         '-'                     //  In other cases, (if "a" is 9,14,19,24) insert "-"
      );
  return b
 }

最小化:

function(a,b){for(b=a='';a++<36;b+=a*51&52?(a^15?8^Math.random()*(a^20?16:4):4).toString(16):'-');return b}

下面是使用 crypto.getRandomValues(a)在支持的浏览器(Internet Explorer 11+,iOS 7+,Firefox 21+,Chrome,和Android Chrome)的简单代码。

它避免使用Math.random(),因为这可能会导致碰撞(例如,在 Muxa 实际情况下产生 4000 UUID 的 20 次碰撞)。

function uuid() {
    function randomDigit() {
        if (crypto && crypto.getRandomValues) {
            var rands = new Uint8Array(1);
            crypto.getRandomValues(rands);
            return (rands[0] % 16).toString(16);
        } else {
            return ((Math.random() * 16) | 0).toString(16);
        }
    }

    var crypto = window.crypto || window.msCrypto;
    return 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-8xxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx'.replace(/x/g, randomDigit);
}

笔记:

优化为代码可读性,而不是速度,所以它适合,说,几百 UUID 每秒. 它在我的笔记本电脑上在 Chromium 中每秒产生约 10000 uuid() 用 http://jsbin.com/fuwigo/1 来测量性能. 它只使用 8 为 “y” 因为它简化了代码可读性(y 允许为 8, 9, A 或 B)。
