## 🕹 [Interactive Demo](https://cupcakearmy.github.io/canihazusername/)

## 🏗 Install

```bash
yarn add canihazusername
```

## 🚀 Quickstart

```typescript
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'

const username = generate()
```

## 🎛 Customize

You can of course customize the generated username. The default format string is `{character}_{english}`.

```typescript
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'

const username = generate('something-{character}_bot')
```

Basically you can use any string you want and everything between `{somelist}` will be replaced from a random word from the list called `somelist`.

There is a [list of available words](#-lists) that you can use.

### ⛓ Combine multiple lists

You can also combine multiple (as many as you wish) lists into the same braket with the `|` charcter.
This will build a combined list and choose at random between all those words.

```typescript
import { generate } from 'canihazusername'

const username = generate('{age|cats|...}')
```
