panicked at 'could not retreive random bytes for uuid: Node.js crypto module is unavailable'

I am writing some code in the rust and compiling it to wasm to run it using node.js runtime for lambda@edge. I need to generate the uuid as part of this code. I am doing that in rust and the code is compiling. But when I run, it is throwing below exception (And it is in my local environment before deploying to lambda, so no AWS environment issue)

Here is my code snippet in the rust

        let visitor_id = Uuid::new_v4();
        debug_log!("visitor_id: {:#?}", visitor_id);
    }

I am using uuid crate as

use uuid::Uuid;

and the dependencies are here

uuid = { version = "0.8", features = ["v4", "wasm-bindgen"] }
getrandom = { version = "0.2", features = ["js"] }

Any idea how to proceed with creating the UUID here?
