Sync uuid from string
How can I generate a UUID from a string synchronously?
In the standard library I only found this async module https://deno.land/std@0.160.0/uuid/v5.ts?s=generate

The randomUUID() method of the Crypto interface is used to generate a v4 UUID using a cryptographically secure random number generator.
@crowlkats Thanks, I don’t need a random one but one that’s replicable from a input string.
oh my bad
You’ll have to create your own
generateSync function using crypto.subtle.digestSync.I ended up using uuid-by-string from NPM https://www.npmjs.com/package/uuid-by-string
npm
