Hi to all,

to import data into Folio using FolioConsoleApplication
[https://github.com/jemiller0/Folio] I need to prepare the correct .json
files.

For me it is not clear how to insert a correct value into 'uuid' columns.
How can I calculate uuid values ?

I see that in
https://github.com/jemiller0/folio-migration/blob/master/lehigh_scripts/ole_assign_uuids_batch.py
the relevant python code is:

import MySQLdb
import uuid
from datetime import datetime
...
def process_bib(db, bib_row):
	bib_uuid = uuid.uuid4()

In uuid library doc page
[https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/uuid.html]
I see:

This module provides immutable UUID objects (the UUID class) and the
functions uuid1(), uuid3(), uuid4(), uuid5() for generating version 1,
3, 4, and 5 UUIDs as specified in RFC 4122.

If all you want is a unique ID, you should probably call uuid1() or
uuid4(). Note that uuid1() may compromise privacy since it creates a
UUID containing the computer’s network address. uuid4() creates a random
UUID.
...

uuid.uuid4()
     Generate a random UUID.

So, do we create UUID in FOLIO with 'uuid.uuid4' or similar functions in
others languages?
