The big change is that the GeoJSON package has been completely rewritten to fix a few of geometry calculation bugs, increase performance, and to better follow the GeoJSON spec RFC 7946. GeoJSON updates - A LineString now requires at least two points. - All json members, even foreign, now persist with the object. - The bbox member persists too but is no longer used for geometry calculations. This is change in behavior. Previously Tile38 would treat the bbox as the object's physical rectangle. - Corrections to geometry intersects and within calculations. Faster spatial queries - The performance of Point-in-polygon and object intersect operations are greatly improved for complex polygons and line strings. It went from O(n) to roughly O(log n). - The same for all collection types with many children, including FeatureCollection, GeometryCollection, MultiPoint, MultiLineString, and MultiPolygon. Codebase changes - The pkg directory has been renamed to internal - The GeoJSON internal package has been moved to a seperate repo at https://github.com/tidwall/geojson. It's now vendored. Please look out for higher memory usage for datasets using complex shapes. A complex shape is one that has 64 or more points. For these shapes it's expected that there will be increase of least 54 bytes per point. |

NUID
A highly performant unique identifier generator.
Installation
Use the go
command:
$ go get github.com/nats-io/nuid
Basic Usage
// Utilize the global locked instance
nuid := nuid.Next()
// Create an instance, these are not locked.
n := nuid.New()
nuid = n.Next()
// Generate a new crypto/rand seeded prefix.
// Generally not needed, happens automatically.
n.RandomizePrefix()
Performance
NUID needs to be very fast to generate and be truly unique, all while being entropy pool friendly. NUID uses 12 bytes of crypto generated data (entropy draining), and 10 bytes of pseudo-random sequential data that increments with a pseudo-random increment.
Total length of a NUID string is 22 bytes of base 36 ascii text, so 36^22 or 17324272922341479351919144385642496 possibilities.
NUID can generate identifiers as fast as 60ns, or ~16 million per second. There is an associated benchmark you can use to test performance on your own hardware.
