Using vinkla/hashids package in Laravel 5.2

Question

I am using vinkla/hashids and i have followed the following steps

composer require vinkla/hashids
Add the service provider to config/app.php in the providers array
If you want you can use the facade. Add the reference in config/app.php to your aliases array.
php artisan vendor:publish this step does not create hashid.php in config file
use Vinkla\Hashids\Facades\Hashids;
Hashids::encode(4815162342);

And i get error that hashids class not found

Did you alias `Vinkla\Hashids\Facades\Hashids` in config/app.php or not? — Jared Eitnier, Aug 11 '16 at 13:53
Have you tried `composer dump-autoload` at all? Might help if you show the controller or library class that is trying to generate a hashid. — Jared Eitnier, Aug 11 '16 at 13:59
yes i have tried everything . composer update, composer install and dump auto-load — Awais Mushtaq, Aug 11 '16 at 14:04
Just for Test purposes, try manually importing the classes by adding explicit `require_once __DIR__ . $pathToVinklaHashidsClass;`. From your observation after that; you may debug/troubleshoot from there. — Poiz, Aug 11 '16 at 14:33
do u thing that its problem in step 4 as that command does not generate hashid.php in config ? — Awais Mushtaq, Aug 11 '16 at 14:42
No... actually just wanted to say that the files is actually created... and you can modify it... check your `$laravelSite/config` Folder. You will notice that a File called `hashids.php` exists there. Now, you can simple configure everything in this file.... — Poiz, Aug 11 '16 at 14:52

It seems that the provider is not booting.

Try to do this:

php artisan config:clear
php artisan clear-compiled

The first will clear any cached config files, and the later will clear the services cache.

It worked for me, hope it works for you too.

Try checking inside your $laravelSite/config Directory to see if you find a file called hashids.php...

In your Controller; try also to import the the Hashids Class manually like so:

<?php
    namespace App\Http\Controllers;

    use Vinkla\Hashids\Facades\Hashids;

    class SampleClass extends  {

        public function testHashID(){
            $h1 = Hashids::encode(4815162342);
            var_dump($h1);
            $h2 = Hashids::decode('oaobgb-rnar');
            var_dump($h2);             
        }
    }

And by the way; if you don't see hashids.php within your $laravelSite/config Directory; you may try to manually create it. The file just returns an array of Configuration Settings... the content to the file looks like so:

    /*
     * This file is part of Laravel Hashids.
     *
     * (c) Vincent Klaiber <hello@vinkla.com>
     *
     * For the full copyright and license information, please view the LICENSE
     * file that was distributed with this source code.
     */

    return [

        /*
        |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
        | Default Connection Name
        |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
        |
        | Here you may specify which of the connections below you wish to use as
        | your default connection for all work. Of course, you may use many
        | connections at once using the manager class.
        |
        */

        'default' => 'main',

        /*
        |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
        | Hashids Connections
        |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
        |
        | Here are each of the connections setup for your application. Example
        | configuration has been included, but you may add as many connections as
        | you would like.
        |
        */

        'connections' => [

            'main' => [
                'salt' => 'your-salt-string',
                'length' => 'your-length-integer',
                'alphabet' => 'your-alphabet-string',
            ],

            'alternative' => [
                'salt' => 'your-salt-string',
                'length' => 'your-length-integer',
                'alphabet' => 'your-alphabet-string',
            ],

        ],

    ];

@AwaisMushtaq Go it step by step. *Step 1:)* **Remove all references Hashids in the `$config/app.php` File**. *Step 2:)* **Remove the entry "require vinkla/hashids" from your composer.json File and also manually find and delete the hashids Folder within your vendors Folder.** *Step 3:* **Run:** `composer require vinkla/hashids` **from command line**. Once that is done: *Step 5:)* **Add** `Vinkla\Hashids\HashidsServiceProvider::class` **to your** `config/app.php` **and then run** `php artisan vendor:publish` **and** `composer dump-autoload` — Poiz, Aug 12 '16 at 09:59

To encode just do this

\Hashids::encode($characters)

And to decode

\Hashids::decode($characters)
