A small collection of traits to be used with [Atk4\\Data\\Model](https://github.com/atk4/data/blob/develop/src/Model.php).

CreatedDateAndLastUpdatedTrait
==============================

[](#createddateandlastupdatedtrait)

This trait can be used to add a `created_date` and/or a `last_updated` field to a model. The corresponding hooks are automatically added to save `created_date` on insert and `last_updated` on update.

```
class SomeModel extends Model
{
    use CreatedDateAndLastUpdatedTrait;

    protected function init(): void
    {
        parent::init();
        $this->addCreatedDateFieldAndHook();
        $this->addLastUpdatedFieldAndHook();
    }
}
```

UniqueFieldTrait
================

[](#uniquefieldtrait)

This trait provides a function `isFieldUnique()` to check if the field's current value is unique among all records in persistence. This functionality can also be achieved by adding a UNIQUE index to an SQL persistence. Having this functionality in the application layer can be sensible to be independent of the persistence's features - or to avoid getting back an exception from the persistence if a non-unique value is being tried to save.

```
class SomeModel extends Model
{
    use UniqueFieldTrait;

    protected function init(): void
    {
        parent::init();
        $this->addField('unique_field');
    }

    $this->onHook(
        Model::HOOK_BEFORE_SAVE,
        function(self $entity, bool $isUpdate) {
            while(!$entity->isFieldUnique('unique_field')) {
                //some function which recalculates field value.
            }
        }
    );
}
```

CryptIdTrait
============

[](#cryptidtrait)

This trait is used to generate cryptic IDs like `D6f2-a395Jskv2`. You can freely define the format the cryptic ID shall have. The functionality can for example be used to create coupon codes or create unguessable, yet human-readable codes/identifiers. The characters I,l,0 and O are removed as they can be easily be mistaken by humans. To use this trait, you just need to add the cryptic ID field in `Model::init()` using `addCryptIdFieldAndHooks` and implement a custom method `generateCryptId()` that returns a random string in the format of your choice:

```
class SomeModel extends Model
{
    use CryptIdTrait;

    protected function init(): void
    {
        parent::init();
        $this->addCryptIdFieldAndHooks('crypt_id');
    }

    /**
     * Custom implementation if cryptic ID format, In this case XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
     */
    protected function generateCryptId(): string
    {
        $cryptId = '';
        for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) {
            if($i > 0) {
                $cryptId .= '-';
            }
            for ($j = 0; $j < 5; $j++) {
                $cryptId .= $this->getRandomChar();
            }
        }

        return $cryptId;
    }
}
```
