Functions

randomToken()

Generate a pseudo-random token string with the specified length.

randomToken(int $length) : string

This helper wraps the ArangoDB AQL function RANDOM_TOKEN(length) which generates a pseudo-random token string. The algorithm for token generation should be treated as opaque. The length must be between 0 and 65536.

Example AQL usage:

RANDOM_TOKEN(8)               // returns a random 8-character string
RANDOM_TOKEN(16)              // returns a random 16-character string
RANDOM_TOKEN(0)               // returns "" (empty string)
RANDOM_TOKEN(32)              // returns a random 32-character string
Parameters
$length : int

Desired string length for the token (0-65536).
