Using hashids instead of integer ids in urls and list items can be more appealing and clever. For more information visit hashids.org.

Eloquent-Hashids Build Status

This adds hashids to Laravel Eloquent models by encoding/decoding them on the fly rather than persisting them in the database. So no need for another database column and also higher performance by using primary keys in queries.

Features include:

  • Generating hashids for models
  • Resloving hashids to models
  • Ability to customize hashid settings for each model
  • Route binding with hashids (optional)

Installation

Install the package with Composer:

$ composer require mtvs/eloquent-hashids

Also, publish the vendor config files to your application (necessary for the dependencies):

$ php artisan vendor:publish

Setup

Base features are provided by using HasHashid trait then route binding with hashids can be added by using HashidRouting.

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HasHashid;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HashidRouting;

Class Item extends Model
{
	use HasHashid, HashidRouting;
}

Custom Hashid Settings

It's possible to customize hashids settings for each model by overwriting getHashidsConnection(). It must return the name of a connection of vinkla/hashids that provides the desired settings.

Usage

Basics

// Generating the model hashid based on its key
$item->hashid();

// Equivalent to the above but with the attribute style
$item->hashid;

// Finding a model based on the provided hashid or
// returning null on failure
Item::findByHashid($hashid);

// Finding a model based on the provided hashid or
// throwing a ModelNotFoundException on failure
Item::findByHashidOrFail($hashid);

// Decoding a hashid to its equivalent id 
$item->hashidToId($hashid);

// Encoding an id to its equivalent hashid
$item->idToHashid($id);

// Getting the name of the hashid connection
$item->getHashidsConnection();

Add the hashid to the serialized model

Set it as default:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HasHashid;

class Item extends Model
{
    use HasHashid;
    
    /**
     * The accessors to append to the model's array form.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $appends = ['hashid'];
}

or specify it specificly:

return $item->append('hashid')->toJson();

Implicit Route Bindings

If you want to resolve implicit route bindings for the model using its hahsid value you can use HashidRouting in the model.

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HasHashid;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HashidRouting;

class Item extends Model
{
    use HasHashid, HashidRouting;
}

It overwrites getRouteKeyName(), getRouteKey() and resolveRouteBindingQuery() to use the hashids as the route keys.

It supports the Laravel's feature for customizing the key for specific routes.

Route::get('/items/{item:slug}', function (Item $item) {
    return $item;
});

Customizing The Default Route Key Name

If you want to by default resolve the implicit route bindings using another field you can overwrite getRouteKeyName() to return the field's name to the resolving process and getRouteKey() to return its value in your links.

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HasHashid;
use Mtvs\EloquentHashids\HashidRouting;

class Item extends Model
{
    use HasHashid, HashidRouting;

    public function getRouteKeyName()
    {
        return 'slug';
    }

    public function getRouteKey()
    {
        return $this->slug;
    }
}

You'll still be able to specify the hashid for specific routes.

Route::get('/items/{item:hashid}', function (Item $item) {
    return $item;
});

Supporting The Other Laravel's Implicit Route Binding Features

When using HashidRouting you'll still be able to use softdeletable and child route bindings.

Route::get('/items/{item}', function (Item $item) {
    return $item;
})->withTrashed();

Route::get('/user/{user}/items/{item}', function (User $user, Item $item) {
    return $item;
})->scopeBindings();
