witty-phrase-generator

Generates three-word phrases of the form intensifier-adjective-noun, just like GitHub default repo names.

Has minimal dependencies (just rand and getopts) and minimal bloat. Uses backtracking and binary search when constraints are tight to avoid repeated computation and maximize speed.

Usage

$ witty-phrase-generator            # -> staggeringly-wise-alchohol
$ witty-phrase-generator -2         # -> fantastic-brush
$ witty-phrase-generator -n 4       # (outputs 4 lines of 3-word phrases)
$ witty-phrase-generator -4c 'e'    # (outputs a four word phrase where each word starts with 'e')

use witty_phrase_generator::WPGen;

fn main() {
    let wp_gen = WPGen::new();  // contains its own thread_rng
    wp_gen.generic(3,           // words per phrase
                   30,          // phrases
                   Some(25),    // minimum length
                   Some(25),    // maximum length
                   Some('a'),   // alliterate with 'a'
                   ).expect("Could not satisfy constraints!");
}

Also supports alliteration, max length, and other features. Use witty-phrase-generator --help or check the docstrings to learn more!
