openlogic / random-word Goto Github PK

I'm trying to use this with the parallel gem inside a thread and I get this error:

"fiber called across threads"

I'm doing something like this:

results = Parallel.map([1,2,3,4,5,6,7],:in_threads=>2) do |item|
  RandomWord.nouns.next
end

Hi there! 👋

I wanted to write a quick issue to let you know about a situation we experienced a couple weeks ago!

We used random-word to generate passwords for a few dozen new user accounts for our web app. For security, we didn't have any visibility into the passwords being generated before sending them via email to the account holders. A couple days later, one of our users emailed us about a password they received that had an extremely upsetting word in it. It was the n-word. 😖

Ultimately, this isn't a problem with the gem at all - I know there's an exclusion list, probably exactly for this reason! However, we definitely didn't think about that ahead of time, and I imagine other folks may be in the same boat.

Anyways, just a heads up in case you were ever considering adding a mode that automatically excludes a predefined list of words, like this one.

Thank you!

I am getting this error. It appears to be coming from RandomWord.nouns.next. I assume it means I reached the end of the list. what is the recommended way of recovering from it?

   StopIteration:
     iteration reached an end

I don't mind starting the list from the beginning again. It's just not clear how to do that.

I had issues using the not_shorter_than function on nouns. No issue with it on adjectives. It said that I gave one argument when it expected 0.

reference:
RandomWord.nouns(not_shorter_than: 56).next
