README

This is a simple class for identifying machines, creating a unique ID based on hardware (Hard disk UUID)

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require floor9design/machine-identifier

Note, the composer file should be available in PSR4 compliant packages, such as Laravel, by default.

Usage

Instantiate the class as required.

$machine_identifier = new \Floor9design\MachineIdentifier\MachineIdentifier();

or

Use \Floor9design\MachineIdentifier\MachineIdentifier;

and

$machine_identifier = new MachineIdentifier();

Generate a unique ID as follows:

$id = $machine_identifier->uniqueMachineId();

Optionally a salt can be used to add further uniqueness:

$id = $machine_identifier->uniqueMachineId($salt);
