EloquentUUID
============

[](#eloquentuuid)

Provides a unique Base62-encoded `UUID` representing a given state of a model instance.

This is particularly useful to keep track of model versions.

**Why Base62 ?**

Compared to `MD5`, a Base62 hash is shorter and the alphabet used makes it cleaner to process, when used in a shorten URL for instance, or when stored in a database.

Requirements:

- PHP >= 5.4
- [Laravel 4.2](http://laravel.com/)

Package installation
--------------------

[](#package-installation)

Begin by installing this package through Composer. Edit your project's `composer.json` file to require `lucasmichot/eloquentuuid`.

```
"require": {
  "lucasmichot/eloquentuuid": "0.*"
}
```

Next, update Composer from the Terminal:

```
$ composer update
```

You can achieve these operations with this one-liner command :

```
$ composer require "lucasmichot/eloquentuuid:0.*"
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use Lucasmichot\Eloquentuuid\UuidTrait;

class Post extends Eloquent
{
    use UuidTrait;

    // the code of your model comes here
}
```

Accessing the UUID :

```
$post = Post::find(1);
// update the attributes of the post

echo $post->uuid();
```

Each time the model is modified, the UUID is changed accordingly.
