ENV

code snippet

 $salt = random_bytes(mt_rand(6, 11));
 $inneralCoding = \mb_detect_encoding($salt);
 $hashIds = new Hashids($salt);

question

When$inneralCoding is false, a new instance Hashids will be failed.

is there neccessary to ensure the salt is UTF-8 encoding?

Thanks for your suggestion @shanezhiu but we currently don't have any plans to not ensure UTF-8 encoding.
