This module implements the version 7 UUIDs, proposed by Peabody and
Davis in
https://www.ietf.org/id/draft-peabody-dispatch-new-uuid-format-02.html
as an extension to RFC4122.
Version 7 has the nice characteristic that the start of a UUID encodes
the time with a chronological sort order and potentially ~50ns time
resolution, while the end of the UUID includes sufficient random bits
to ensure consecutive UUIDs will remain unique.
NOTE: If this package has multiple flavors (see below), then use one of them instead of the name specified above. NOTE: This is a Python port. Instead of py311-uuid7 listed in the above command, you can pick from the names under the Packages section.
===> The following configuration options are available for py311-uuid7-0.1.0:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
devel/py-uuid7: add port: UUID version 7, which are time-sortable
