+:case_sensitive+ defaults to <tt>true</tt>

+:type+ type of string, defaults to <tt>:auto</tt>
        can be one of: <tt>:human</tt>, <tt>:auto</tt>

+:blacklist+ characters to exclude when generating the random
             string, defaults to <tt>[]</tt>

+:scope+ defines the `ActiveRecord` `scope` applied before
         calculating the `position` field value.
         defaults to <tt>[]</tt>
