Class VertxContextPRNG

java.lang.Object
io.vertx.reactivex.ext.auth.prng.VertxContextPRNG
All Implemented Interfaces:
io.vertx.lang.rx.RxDelegate
public class VertxContextPRNG extends Object implements io.vertx.lang.rx.RxDelegate
A secure non blocking random number generator isolated to the current context. The PRNG is bound to the vert.x context and setup to close when the context shuts down.

When applicable, use of VertxContextPRNG rather than create new PRNG objects is helpful to keep the system entropy usage to the minimum avoiding potential blocking across the application.

The use of VertxContextPRNG is particularly appropriate when multiple handlers use random numbers.

NOTE: This class has been automatically generated from the original non RX-ified interface using Vert.x codegen.

    • __TYPE_ARG

      public static final io.vertx.lang.rx.TypeArg<VertxContextPRNG> __TYPE_ARG

  • Constructor Details

    • VertxContextPRNG

      public VertxContextPRNG(VertxContextPRNG delegate)

    • VertxContextPRNG

      public VertxContextPRNG(Object delegate)

  • Method Details

    • toString

      public String toString()
      Overrides:
      toString in class Object

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object o)
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object

    • hashCode

      public int hashCode()
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object

    • getDelegate

      public VertxContextPRNG getDelegate()
      Specified by:
      getDelegate in interface io.vertx.lang.rx.RxDelegate

    • current

      public static VertxContextPRNG current()
      Get or create a secure non blocking random number generator using the current vert.x context. If there is no current context (i.e.: not running on the eventloop) then a IllegalStateException is thrown.

      Note, if a context isn't allowed to be used, for example, exceptions are thrown on getting and putting data, the VertxContextPRNG falls back to instantiate a new instance of the PRNG per call.

      Returns:
      A secure non blocking random number generator.

    • current

      public static VertxContextPRNG current(Vertx vertx)
      Get or create a secure non blocking random number generator using the current vert.x instance. Since the context might be different this method will attempt to use the current context first if available and then fall back to create a new instance of the PRNG.

      Note, if a context isn't allowed to be used, for example, exceptions are thrown on getting and putting data, the VertxContextPRNG falls back to instantiate a new instance of the PRNG per call.

      Parameters:
      vertx - a Vert.x instance.
      Returns:
      A secure non blocking random number generator.

    • close

      public void close()
      stop seeding the PRNG

    • nextString

      public String nextString(int length)
      Returns a Base64 url encoded String of random data with the given length. The length parameter refers to the length of the String before the encoding step.
      Parameters:
      length - the desired string length before Base64 encoding.
      Returns:
      A base 64 encoded string.

    • nextInt

      public int nextInt()
      Returns a secure random int
      Returns:
      random int.

    • nextInt

      public int nextInt(int bound)
      Returns a secure random int, between 0 (inclusive) and the specified bound (exclusive).
      Parameters:
      bound - the upper bound (exclusive), which must be positive.
      Returns:
      random int.

    • nextBoolean

      public boolean nextBoolean()
      Returns a secure random boolean
      Returns:
      random boolean.

    • nextLong

      public long nextLong()
      Returns a secure random long
      Returns:
      random long.

    • nextFloat

      public float nextFloat()
      Returns a secure random float value. The value is uniformly distributed between 0.0 and 1.0
      Returns:
      random float.

    • nextDouble

      public double nextDouble()
      Returns a secure random double value. The value is uniformly distributed between 0.0 and 1.0
      Returns:
      random double.

    • nextGaussian

      public double nextGaussian()
      Returns a secure random double value. The value is Gaussian ("normally") distributed with mean 0.0 and standard deviation 1.0
      Returns:
      random double.

    • nextBytes

      public void nextBytes(byte[] bytes)
      Fills the given byte array with random bytes.
      Parameters:
      bytes - a byte array.

    • newInstance

      public static VertxContextPRNG newInstance(VertxContextPRNG arg)
