var SnowflakeCodon = ;
Generate IDs with application ID and machine ID
var appId = 1; // optional, default value 0var machineId = 99; // optional, default value 0var firstYear = 2015; // optional, default value 1970var timestampPrecision = 200; // optional, default value 1000 (ms)var generator = appId machineId firstYear timestampPrecision;var id = generator;// id will be something like '0fw2tte10003300'
