# Trivium
Library to generate 3 unique 3 word phrases, probably to use as slugs.

Also known as: "Ridiculously Handsome Teenager"

## Usage
Add this to your config.exs file
```elixir
:trivium,
  format: %{order: [:adjectives, :adverbs, :nouns]},
  sources: %{adjectives: "src/adjectives.exs", adverbs: "src/adverbs.exs", nouns: "src/nouns.exs"}
```

And start the Dictionary genserver in your application.ex file
```elixir
def start(_, _) do
  Trivium.Dictionary,
  ...
end
```

Then, generate a new slug using:
`Trivium.generate()`

Or, use the Mix Task:
`mix slug.generate`

## Caveats
This library makes no guarantee of uniqueness. Although the chances of a collison are exceedingly low, they are not zero.
If you need to guarantee uniqueness, add an external validator (such as a Bloom filter or RDBMS unique column.)

## Installation

If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `trivium` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:trivium, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end
```

Documentation can be generated with [ExDoc](https://github.com/elixir-lang/ex_doc)
and published on [HexDocs](https://hexdocs.pm). Once published, the docs can
be found at <https://hexdocs.pm/trivium>.

## TODO
Add telemetry that reports a hash of the generated phrase
- collect the data to display on a website, showing how many have been generated and how many collisions
