This utility will generate "pet names", consisting of a random combination of an adverb, adjective, and an animal name. These are useful for unique hostnames or container names, for instance.

As such, PetName tries to follow the tenets of Zooko’s triangle. Names are, human meaningful, decentralized and secure.

Currently published to the sonatype snapshots repository.

in build.sbt add

resolvers += Resolver.sonatypeRepo("staging")

libraryDependencies += "space.piwo" %% "petname-scala" % "0.2"

in code you can

import space.piwo.petname.{Complexity, Petname}

Petname.generate(words = 3, complexity = Complexity.Large)
