OdoID

Deterministic mixed-radix ID encoding. Maps a ulong to a 6, 7, or 8-character alphanumeric string with a serial-number aesthetic.

OdoId.Encode(0,            6)  →  "0A0000"
OdoId.Encode(1234567,      6)  →  "0D7NM7"
OdoId.Encode(1234567,      7)  →  "0A15NM7"
OdoId.Encode(236223201279, 8)  →  "ZZ9ZZZZZ"

Features

  • Deterministic — same integer + length always produces the same string, and vice-versa.
  • Human-readable — ambiguous characters I, L, O are excluded from all positions.
  • Fixed positional structure — position 1 is always a letter, position 2 is always a digit.
  • Zero dependencies — pure .NET standard library only.
  • Multi-target — net8.0, net6.0, netstandard2.1.

Install

dotnet add package OdoID

Usage

Encode

using OdoID;

OdoId.Encode(0, 6);            // "0A0000"
OdoId.Encode(1234567, 6);      // "0D7NM7"
OdoId.Encode(1234567, 7);      // "0A15NM7"
OdoId.Encode(236223201279, 8); // "ZZ9ZZZZZ"

Default length is 6:

OdoId.Encode(0); // "0A0000"

Decode

OdoId.Decode("0A0000");    // 0UL
OdoId.Decode("0D7NM7");    // 1234567UL

Returns ulong. Input is uppercased before lookup, so "0d7nm7" is valid.

OdoIDGenerator

var g = new OdoIDGenerator(new GeneratorConfig
{
    Namespace = "orders",
    Length    = 7
});

var result = g.Next();
// result.Id        → e.g. "3H5NV2K"
// result.N         → the raw ulong
// result.Length    → 7
// result.Namespace → "orders"

Lengths and Capacity

Length Max integer (exclusive)
6 230,686,720
7 7,381,975,040
8 236,223,201,280

Exceptions

Exception When
OdoOverflowException n >= Max[length]
UnsupportedLengthException length is not 6, 7, or 8
InvalidCharacterException character not in positional charset during decode

All are subclasses of ArgumentOutOfRangeException or ArgumentException.
