Key Authentication Plugin key publish algorithm

Hi all,

I am using Kong community version as an APIGW in a small application stack.
Would you please help me figure out what is the algorithm used to generate api-keys in Key Authentication plugin?

Thanks
Nima

We would also be interested in any pointers on where the API key generation happens in the Key Authentication plugin. We found the source code on Github:

But it’s not clear where the key generation happen. I would assume this component is also open source, since the plugin is available with Kong OSS?
