Timenames provides you with a unique name for each second of the day. You can see a demo here.

I am using readmix for generating this README. You can view the source file here.

I was working on a sound recorder app that gave a default filename to each recording based on the current time. I extracted the naming logic into a separate npm package called timenames and added a demo react app for previewing.

Install the timenames npm package:

npm install timenames

Import the getTimeName() function:

import { getTimeName } from "timenames";

Call the getTimeName() function to get a timename:

const timename = getTimeName();

You can optionally pass a time prop to get a timename for a specific time:

const t = Date.now();
const timename = getTimeName(t);

This package has no dependencies.

This package has no devDependencies.
