Generate Unique Client ID Per Computer – Biri.js

If you are developing a web application, you might need a unique client ID (public identifier) for a web client.

Biri is a tiny and fast JavaScript library that makes it easy to generate a unique client-side ID based on the MAC address of the computer.

How to use it:

1. Install and import the biri.

# NPM
$ npm install biri --save

const biri = require('biri');

2. Or load the biri.min.js in the document.

<script src="dist/biri.min.js"></script>

3. Generate a unique client ID. Note that Await can be only used in functions marked as async as follows:

const output = async function() {
      const uniqueId = await biri();
      console.log(uniqueId);
}
