[](#seriquent--)

1. **Serialize** a tree of Eloquent models into a self-referential array with anonymized primary keys
2. **Deserialize** it back into the database with new primary keys

Installation
============

[](#installation)

`composer require prewk/seriquent`

Example
=======

[](#example)

Your database has a `foos` table, belonging to a `qux` table.

`foos` has a one-to-many relation to the `bars` table.

Both `bars` and `qux` have a polymorphic one-to-many relation to the `bazs` table (They are "`bazable`").

Database contents

Desired results
---------------

[](#desired-results)

```
{
    "Foo": [
        { "@id": "@1", "qux": "@7", "name": "Lorem ipsum" }
    ],
    "Bar": [
        { "@id": "@2", "foo": "@1" },
        { "@id": "@4", "foo": "@1" },
        { "@id": "@6", "foo": "@1" }
    ],
    "Baz": [
        { "@id": "@3", "bazable": ["Bar", "@2"] },
        { "@id": "@5", "bazable": ["Bar", "@4"] },
        { "@id": "@8", "bazable": ["Qux", "@7"] }
    ],
    "Qux": [
        { "@id": "@7", "data": ["a", "b", "c"] }
    ]
}
```

- `Foo`, `Bar` etc are the Eloquent models' FQCNs
- All entities get a unique internal id `"@id": "@123"`
- An entity refers to another entity by its internal id and the relation name `"foo": "@1"`
- Regular columns are just values `"name": "Lorem ipsum"`
