Generate UUID

[ehamiter]

This plugin will generate a UUID (uuid4, to be specific-- if you want to know more, or if you should edit this to use uuid1, read more here) or a series of UUIDs if you have selected multiple points.

Copy the below code and save it as generate_uuid.py and put it in ST2's Packages/User directory (Sublime Text 2 > Preferences > Browse Packages... > User).

Code: Select all

import sublime_plugin
import uuid


class GenerateUuidCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
    def run(self, edit):
        u = str(uuid.uuid4())
        for r in self.view.sel():
            self.view.replace(edit, r, u)


I've added this to my User Key Bindings (Command-Shift-u on a Mac):

Code: Select all

{ "keys": ["super+shift+u"], "command": "generate_uuid" }
