This is a python module that generates random codenames for projects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A basic command, as well as a simple HTTP API server, are included.

I have intentionally excluded words that are long, confusing, hard to spell,
|
|
|
|
|
as well as occupations, animal names with negative connotations, and some
|
|
|
|
|
foods and body parts in an attempt to avoid randomly generating negative,
|
|
|
|
|
threatening, or disgusting code names.

This module uses nothing but the python3 standard library.
