Generate and use HashIds for your Laravel models, just like native ULIDs and UUIDs.

This package allows you to generate and use HashIds for your Laravel models, just like native ULIDs and UUIDs. It is easy to integrate and works seamlessly with Laravel's Eloquent models.

Installation

Install via composer:

composer require bretterer/laravel-hashid

Usage

1. Add the Trait to Your Model

use Bretterer\LaravelHashId\Traits\HasHashIds;

class User extends Model
{
	use HasHashIds;
	// ...
}

2. Use HashId Columns in Migrations

Schema::create('users', function ($table) {
	$table->hashId('id', 16)->primary();
	$table->string('name');
});

Schema::create('posts', function ($table) {
	$table->hashId('id', 16)->primary();
	$table->foreignHashId('user_id', 'users', 'id', 16);
	$table->string('title');
});

3. Creating Models

$user = User::create(['name' => 'Alice']);
echo $user->id; // 16-character base62 HashId

$post = Post::create(['user_id' => $user->id, 'title' => 'Hello']);

4. Custom Prefixes

class PrefixedUser extends Model {
	use HasHashIds;
	public function idPrefix(): string { return 'usr'; }
}

$user = PrefixedUser::create(['name' => 'Dave']);
echo $user->id; // usr_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

5. HashId Generator

use Bretterer\LaravelHashId\LaravelHashId;

$generator = new LaravelHashId();
$hashId = $generator->generate(16); // Random HashId
$hashIdFromValue = $generator->generateFromValue('value', 'salt', 16); // HashId from value

Testing

composer test
