DEPRECATION NOTICE: this package has been moved and improved at grizz-it/identifier
This package contains a few algorithms to generate unique identifiers.
To install the package run the following command:
composer require ulrack/identifier
All identifier generators implement Ulrack\Identifier\Common\IdGeneratorInterface.
The ULID generator generates identifiers based on the ULID algorithms.
The ULID PID generator expands upon the UlidGenerator to create a more unique identifier. It adds 4 additional characters to the ULID based on the PID assigned to the executing PHP process. This excludes (the extremely unlikely) possibility of a matching ID being generated between in 2 separate PHP processes which simultaneously generate an ID.
The random bye ID generator generates an identifier based on a set amount of random bytes which get converted to their hexadecimal counterpart. This generator can be instantiated with the number of bytes that should be used. The number of bytes times two will be the resulting identifier length.
Please see CHANGELOG for more information on what has changed recently.
Please see CONTRIBUTING and CODE_OF_CONDUCT for details.
