/bin/random

The builtin random of mkfifo.com, with the options of the command random of a shell. The builtins of an envelope are the same.

Use it from the web

Its address is https://mkfifo.com//bin/random, with two slashes. Send a POST: the body is the input, and the query gives the words, between & and with percent-encoding. The answer is the output, as the command of a shell writes it. An error gives 422 and the error.

curl -X POST 'https://mkfifo.com//bin/random?8'

The answer (200):

Use it in an envelope

A pipe gives a value to it, as to a FIFO: $body | /bin/random. An egress envelope can send to it, To: /bin/random, and Reply-To gives its answer to a FIFO. These give no words: use the builtin itself for words, as in $body | jq .id.

A builtin here has no FIFO as its home: no code of totp and no sealed key of a FIFO opens in it. Each run counts in the limits of its Request.
