Merovex / encrypt_to_slug.rb
Created August 9, 2024 09:45
Takes a number (like an id) and one-way encrypts to a slug (needs to be stored in database)
require 'digest'
SLUG_DEFAULT = 4
SAFESTRING = "BDFGHJKLMNPQRTVWXYZbdfghjkmnpqrtvwxyz26789".freeze
def encrypt_to_slug(number, size: SLUG_DEFAULT, alphabet: SAFESTRING)
non_numeric_set = alphabet.gsub(/[0-9]/, '') # Characters without digits
# Step 1: Hash the number (using SHA256)
hash = Digest::SHA256.digest(number.to_s)

Baseline the Serif font to the OS defaults, similar to what is used in Bootstrap's Reboot (same mix seen in dozens of websites using serif in body.
// font-family: Cambria, Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
// Noto Serif found on modern Android and many Linux distros.
// Times is Mac OS
// Georgia is a classic serif font that I have seen leading this everywhere.
$font-family-sans-serif: Cambria, Georgia, "Noto Serif", "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
