uuid is referenced in the read me but never set

Hi

I was wondering when th uuid on the ticket get initialised ?

In the readme there is this:

    return redirect(route('tickets.show', $ticket->uuid))
            ->with('success', __('Your Ticket Was created successfully.'));

Hi, @rabol

The uuid is null by default, and in the example is letting you know that there's a uuid column you can use.

If you want to use the uuid, do the following:

• Create app/Ticket.php model in your app
• extend Coderflex\LaravelTicket\Models\Ticket model
• use the Model observer to create to generate the uuid when creating a new ticket.
• use the uuid in the getRouteKeyName or in the routes/web.php to set the primary key to uuid

Here's an example:

class Ticket extends \Coderflex\LaravelTicket\Models\Ticket
{
  ....

  protected function booted()
  {
     static::created(function (Model $model) {
      $model->uuid = Str::uuid();
    });
  }

  // to make the uuid primary by default
  public function getRouteKeyName()
  {
    return 'uuid';
  }
}

Or you can use the routes/web.php

Route::get('/tickets/{ticket:uuid}', ...);
