README

This is a flexible coupon code generator.

A 'Coupon Code' is made up of letters and numbers grouped into 4 character 'parts'. For example, a 3-part code might look like this:

1K7Q-CTFM-LMTC

Coupon Codes are random codes which are easy for the recipient to type accurately into a web form. An example application might be to print a code on a letter to a customer who would then enter the code as part of the registration process for web access to their account.

Installation

composer require ryantxr/coupon-code

Static Usage

\Ryantxr\CouponCode\Generator::generate(); // generate a code
\Ryantxr\CouponCode\Generator::generate(true); // generate a lowercase code
$bytes = random_bytes(16);
\Ryantxr\CouponCode\Generator::generate(true, $bytes); // generate a lower case code and pass in the random bytes
\Ryantxr\CouponCode\Generator::init(['numberOfSegments' => 5, 'segmentLength' => 4])->generateCode(); // generate a code

$codeGenerator = new \Ryantxr\CouponCode\Generator();
$codeGenerator = new \Ryantxr\CouponCode\Generator(['numberOfSegments' => 5, 'segmentLength' => 4]);
