php generate unique id for mysql
A programmatic way can be to:
add a UNIQUE INDEX to the field
generate a random string in PHP
loop in PHP ( while( ! DO_THE_INSERT ) )
generate another string
Note:
This can be dirty, but has the advantage to be DBMS-agnostic
Even if you choose to use a DBMS specific unique ID generator function (UUID, etc) it is a best practice to assure the field HAS to be UNIQUE, using the index
the loop is statistically not executed at all, it is entered only on insert failureAre there any code examples left?
