Use hashids when you do not want to expose your database ids to the user.** Installation ------------ [](#installation) Begin by installing the package through Composer. Edit your project's `composer.json` file to require `mitch/hashids`. ``` "require": { "mitch/hashids": "1.x" } ``` Next use Composer to update your project from the the Terminal: ``` php composer.phar update ``` Once the package has been installed you'll need to add the service provider. Open your `app/config/app.php` configuration file, and add a new item to the `providers` array. ``` 'Mitch\Hashids\HashidsServiceProvider' ``` After doing this you also need to add an alias. In your `app/config/app.php` file, add this to the `aliases` array. ``` 'Hashids' => 'Mitch\Hashids\Hashids' ``` Now last but not least you need to publish to package configuration from your Terminal: ``` php artisan config:publish mitch/hashids ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) Once you've followed all the steps and completed the installation you can use Hashids. ### Encoding [](#encoding) You can simply encrypt on id: ``` Hashids::encode(1); // Creating hash... Ri7Bi ``` or multiple.. ``` Hashids::encode(1, 21, 12, 12, 666); // Creating hash... MMtaUpSGhdA ``` ### Decoding [](#decoding) It's the same thing but the other way around: ``` Hashids::decode('Ri7Bi'); // Returns array (size=1) 0 => int 1 ``` or multiple.. ``` Hashids::decode('MMtaUpSGhdA'); // Returns array (size=5) 0 => int 1 1 => int 21 2 => int 12 3 => int 12 4 => int 666 ``` ### Injecting Hashids [](#injecting-hashids) Now it's also possible to have Hashids injected into your class. Lets look at this controller as an example.. ``` class ExampleController extends BaseController { protected $hashids; public function __construct(Hashids\Hashids $hashids) { $this->hashids = $hashids; } public function getIndex() { $hash = $this->hashids->encode(1); return View::make('example.index', compact('hash')); } } ``` The original classname and namespace has been bound in the IoC container to return our instantiated Hashids class. ### Using IoC [](#using-ioc) Create a Hashids instance with the IoC ``` App::make('Hashids\Hashids')->encode(1); ``` That's it! ---------- [](#thats-it) Documentation about [Hashids can be found here](https://github.com/ivanakimov/hashids.php). Thanks to Ivan Akimov (@ivanakimov) for making Hashids. All credits for the Hashids package go to him. ### Health Score 40 — FairBetter than 88% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity47 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community19 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity59 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 84.9% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
