Use both auto-increment and UUID

HasUuid Trait

What?

Why choose between Seq ID (aka auto-increment) and UUID when you can use both? This package helps you to add UUID to your Laravel Models., _(*1)

You can also use this class if you only wants UUID without increments., _(*2)

Quick start

Install with composer:, _(*3)

composer require rap2hpoutre/has-uuid

Add the trait to your models:, _(*4)

<?php
class User {

    use \Rap2hpoutre\HasUuid\HasUuid;

    // ...
}

Use the Trait to load your models:, _(*5)

$user = User::uuid('e3ae1e6b-fabb-4839-bf65-de9a892c0d56');

And when you save a model, it will magically add a UUID to it:, _(*6)

$user = new User;
$user->name = 'raph';
$user->save(); // <- Your user has now a UUID (and a ID if you have not removed it)

PS: don't forget to add the UUID in your migrations:, _(*7)

<?php   
   class CreateSesNotificationsTable extends \Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration
   {
       public function up()
       {
           \Schema::create('user', function ($table) {
               $table->increments('id');
               $table->uuid('uuid')->index(); // <- THIS.
               $table->string('email')->index();
               $table->timestamps();
           });
       }
       // ...
   }
