A Java/Android library to generate random english pronounceable words based on a collection of constructed bi-grams.
This is a lightweight and focused library. There's a single class with only a single public method that's accessible.
This library can be used in an infinite amount of ways:
- generate initial passwords for your user based applications
- suggest character names in your games
- find a unique name for your child
- the list goes on...
Here's a simple Android app built with the library that demonstrates its usage:
This demo app is available on Google Play.
The library is available through Maven Central, which is included in your repositories by default on Android. For a Java
project, make sure you have mavenCentral()
added to your repositories.
implementation 'com.maximeroussy.invitrode:invitrode:2.0.2'
<dependency>
<groupId>com.maximeroussy.invitrode</groupId>
<artifactId>invitrode</artifactId>
<version>2.0.2</version>
<type>pom</type>
</dependency>
You can grab the jar for the latest release to include in your project manually.
Using the library is extremely simple.
WordGenerator generator = WordGenerator();
String myNewWord = generator.newWord(int lengthOfWord);
Bi-gram source and general concept based on Scrollback's generate.js & described in this blog post by Aravind. This is a Java adaptation that will be further developed as a functional and feature rich random word generator.
