A trait for Laravel Eloquent models to ensure a field remains unique within specified constraints.

It offers flexible suffix formats or custom value generators, making it ideal for scenarios like unique names,
slugs, or identifiers.

## How It Works

The `HasUniqueNames` trait hooks into the Laravel Eloquent `saving` event, which fires before a model is persisted
to the database (on both create and update operations). It checks if the designated unique field (e.g., `name`)
already exists within the defined constraints (e.g., `organization_id`). If a duplicate is detected:

- On **create**, it generates a unique value.
- On **update**, it only adjusts the field if it has changed (i.e., if it’s “dirty”).

If a duplicate exists, the trait either appends a suffix (e.g., `Foo (1)`) or uses a custom generator
to produce a unique value.

## Features

- Enforces uniqueness at the application level before saving.
- Supports custom suffix formats (e.g., ` ({n})` or `-{n}`).
- Allows custom value generators for advanced uniqueness logic.
- Configurable via a config file or model properties.
- Handles constraints (e.g., uniqueness within a specific scope).

## Installation

Install the package via Composer:

```bash
composer require willvincent/laravel-unique
```

Publish the configuration file (optional) to customize defaults:

```bash
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="WillVincent\LaravelUnique\LaravelUniqueServiceProvider"
```

Here’s the default configuration file (`config/unique_names.php`):

```php
return [
    /*
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Unique Name Field
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | The default field name to enforce uniqueness on.
    */
    'unique_field' => 'name',

/*
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Constraint Fields
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Fields defining the scope of uniqueness. For example, to ensure unique equipment names
    | within a department, set 'constraint_fields' to ['department_id'].
    */
    'constraint_fields' => [],

/*
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Suffix Format
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Defines how suffixes are appended to duplicates. Use '{n}' as a placeholder for the number.
    | Examples: ' ({n})' → 'Foo (1)', '-{n}' → 'foo-1'.
    */
    'suffix_format' => ' ({n})',

/*
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Deduplication Max Tries
    |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Maximum attempts to generate a unique value before throwing an exception.
    */
    'max_tries' => 10,
];
```

## Usage

Add the `HasUniqueNames` trait to your Eloquent model and optionally configure it:

```php
use WillVincent\LaravelUnique\HasUniqueNames;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use HasUniqueNames;

// Optional: Override default settings
    protected $uniqueField = 'name';              // Field to keep unique (default: 'name')
    protected $constraintFields = ['organization_id']; // Scope of uniqueness (default: [])
    protected $uniqueSuffixFormat = ' ({n})';     // Suffix format (default: ' ({n})')
}
```

### Configuration Options

You can customize the trait’s behavior either in the `config/unique_names.php` file or by
overriding properties in your model:

- **`uniqueField`**: The field to enforce uniqueness on (default: `'name'`).
- **`constraintFields`**: Array of fields defining the uniqueness scope (default: `[]`).
- **`uniqueSuffixFormat`**: Format for suffixes, with `{n}` as the number placeholder (default: `' ({n})'`).
- **`uniqueValueGenerator`**: Optional custom generator (see below).
- **`uniqueTableName`**: Optional alternate table to enforce uniqueness within (see below).

Model properties take precedence over config file settings.

### Examples

#### Default Suffix

Ensure names are unique within an organization:

```php
protected $uniqueField = 'name';
protected $constraintFields = ['organization_id'];
protected $uniqueSuffixFormat = ' ({n})';
```

- Input: `name: "Foo", organization_id: 1`
    - Output: `"Foo"` (if unique)
    - Output: `"Foo (1)"` (if `"Foo"` exists)
    - Output: `"Foo (2)"` (if `"Foo"` and `"Foo (1)"` exist)

#### Slug Format

Use a slug-friendly suffix:

```php
protected $uniqueField = 'slug';
protected $constraintFields = ['organization_id'];
protected $uniqueSuffixFormat = '-{n}';
```

- Input: `slug: "bar", organization_id: 1`
    - Output: `"bar"` (if unique)
    - Output: `"bar-1"` (if `"bar"` exists)

#### Custom Generator

Define a custom method or callable for unique values:

**Method on Model:**

```php
protected $uniqueValueGenerator = 'generateUniqueSlug';

public function generateUniqueSlug(string $base, array $constraints, ?int $attempt): string
{
    return $base . '-' . \Str::random(5);
}
```

**Callable:**

```php
protected $uniqueValueGenerator;

public function __construct() {
    $this->uniqueValueGenerator = function (string $base, array $constraints, int $attempt): string {
        return $base . '-' . \Str::random(5);
    };
}
```

- Input: `name: "baz"`
    - Output: `"baz-abc12"` (random 5-character suffix)

The generator receives the base value, constraint values, and the retry attempt, and must return a unique string.
It retries up to `max_tries` times if the generated value isn’t unique, the first attempt will be 0, retries will
be numbered 1 through your limit.

### Using a Custom Unique Table

By default, the `HasUniqueNames` trait checks for uniqueness in the model's primary table (e.g., `items`).
However, you can specify a different table for uniqueness checks using the `$uniqueTableName` property.
This is useful when your model saves to one table but needs to enforce uniqueness based on data in another table.
It is also useful if you're updating data in a table that is relevant to your model, but not necessarily represented
by a model itself; as an example subdomain records for multi-tenant applications.

#### Example

Suppose you have a model that saves to the `items` table but needs to ensure uniqueness based on records in
a `legacy_items` table:

```php
use WillVincent\LaravelUnique\HasUniqueNames;

class Item extends Model
{
    use HasUniqueNames;

protected $table = 'items'; // Model saves to 'items'
    protected $uniqueTableName = 'legacy_items'; // Uniqueness checked in 'legacy_items'
    protected $uniqueField = 'name';
    protected $constraintFields = ['organization_id'];
}
```

- When saving a new Item, the trait will check for duplicates in the legacy_items table (not items).
- If a duplicate is found in legacy_items, it will append a suffix (e.g., "Foo (1)") or use a custom generator to
  make the name unique.

#### Important Notes:

- The custom table (e.g., legacy_items) must have the same columns as specified in `$uniqueField` (e.g., name)
  and `$constraintFields` (e.g., organization_id).
- Soft delete behavior (if enabled) will respect the custom table's deleted_at column.

#### Soft Deletes with Custom Tables

If your model uses soft deletes and you’ve enabled unique_names.soft_delete in the config, the trait will consider
soft-deleted records in the custom table based on the _uniqueIncludesTrashed setting:

- When _uniqueIncludesTrashed is true, soft-deleted records in the custom table are included in uniqueness checks.
- When false, they are ignored.

This ensures consistent behavior whether using the model's primary table or a custom table.

## Advanced Configuration

### Custom Generator Details

The custom generator can be:

- A **string**: The name of a method on the model.
- A **callable**: An anonymous function or closure.

If the generated value isn’t unique, the trait retries with increasing attempt counts until `max_tries` is reached,
then throws an exception.

### Database Considerations

The trait enforces uniqueness at the application level. For data integrity, especially in high-concurrency
scenarios, consider adding database-level unique constraints (e.g., unique indexes) alongside this trait.

## Testing

The package includes a test suite with over 97% coverage of the code, testing:

- Uniqueness on create and update
- Suffix formats
- Custom generators
- Constraint handling
- Edge cases (e.g., null constraints, max tries)

Run the tests with:

```bash
composer test
```
