It returns a random number of length 8 when called the shortid.number() only if the shortid.characters(); function is set as shortid.characters('0123456789'); @ai @dylang

  1. 10 digits in 8 symbols will be not enough if the user sets cluster-ID wrong.
  2. It is better to create a new npm package for this task.
