Unique Hashids

![Software License][ico-license], _(*2)

This is a simple trait for Laravel models to generate unique ids for them. It uses vinkla's wonderful Hashids package and is configurable within the model itself., _(*3)

Installation

You may install this package via composer:, _(*4)

$ composer require juggl/unique-hashids

Configuration

This will install both this package and Hashids. Please see the documentation over there to install & configure the hashids. This package will use the default Hashids driver., _(*5)

Usage

To start generating unique ids for your models, all you need to do is use a trait, like so:, _(*6)

namespace App;

use Juggl\UniqueHashids\GeneratesUnique;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use GeneratesUnique;

    // The rest of your model
}

By default, this package assumes you have a unique_id column on you database to store the unique id in. Optionally, you may override this by setting a static property $uniqueColumn on your model:, _(*7)

namespace App;

use Juggl\UniqueHashids\GeneratesUnique;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use GeneratesUnique;

    public static $uniqueColumn = 'my_column'; // this will assume 'unique_id' by default.

    // The rest of your model
}
