⚡ Laravel ObjectId
==================

[](#-laravel-objectid)

Elegant, fast **ObjectId** generator for Laravel models — with automatic ID assignment, migration macro, and helper function.

> Laravel ObjectId brings the power and efficiency of MongoDB-style ObjectIds to your Eloquent models — with no database dependency.
>
> It’s a **drop-in, ultra-fast unique ID system** that fits seamlessly into Laravel’s model lifecycle.
>
> With this package, you can:
>
> - Automatically assign 24-character hex ObjectIds to your models.
> - Use `$table->objectId()` directly in your migrations.
> - Generate IDs anywhere using the global `objectid()` helper.
> - Enjoy compact, sortable, timestamp-encoded identifiers — **3× faster than UUIDs**.
>
> Built for performance, readability, and developer happiness.
>
> ---
>
> **Perfect for:**
>
> - Large-scale Laravel apps
> - Multi-database systems
> - UUID/ULID replacements
> - Caching and indexing optimization

---

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require wooserv/laravel-objectid
```

This package is auto-discovered by Laravel. No manual provider registration needed.

---

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### 1. Model

[](#1-model)

```
use WooServ\LaravelObjectId\Concerns\HasObjectIds;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Post extends Model
{
    use HasObjectIds;
}
```

Now every new record gets a unique ObjectId automatically:

```
$post = Post::create(['name' => 'Hello World']);
echo $post->id; // e.g. 6730b6a0d8a28f890b7c9f40
```

---

### 2. Migration Macro

[](#2-migration-macro)

The service provider automatically adds a new macro to the schema builder:

```
Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->objectId(); // Creates string(24) primary key
    $table->string('name');
    $table->timestamps();
});
```

Optionally:

```
$table->objectId('uuid', false); // custom column, not primary
```

---

### 3. Helper Function

[](#3-helper-function)

```
$id = objectid(); // returns 24-char hex ObjectId string
```

---

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer test
```

Runs a full PHPUnit suite using an in-memory SQLite database.

⚡️ Benchmark Results
--------------------

[](#️-benchmark-results)

All benchmarks were executed on PHP 8.4 using in-memory SQLite and 10000 iterations per test on a local machine.

### ObjectId Generation Speed

[](#objectid-generation-speed)

```
Laravel ObjectId Benchmark (10000 iterations)
----------------------------------------------------------
ObjectId             : 0.412 µs per ID
objectid() helper    : 0.417 µs per ID
UUID                 : 1.283 µs per ID
ULID                 : 1.147 µs per ID
----------------------------------------------------------
Fastest: ObjectId

```

**Result:** `ObjectId` is roughly **3× faster** than UUID and **~2.7× faster** than ULID.

---

### Database Insert Performance

[](#database-insert-performance)

```
Database Insert Benchmark (1000 inserts)
----------------------------------------------------------
ObjectId   : 14.78 ms total (0.015 ms/insert)
UUID       : 15.48 ms total (0.015 ms/insert)
ULID       : 15.17 ms total (0.015 ms/insert)
----------------------------------------------------------

```

**Result:** Real-world insert performance is effectively identical across ID types, but **ObjectId maintains slightly lower overhead** during generation and indexing.
