How to implement on existing system with auto incrementing IDs?

[marlocorridor]

Hi, saw this package on Laravel News.
This package could help me develop the employee Points management feature of our system.

As I understand on the documentation, we need to convert IDs to Snowflakes.

🤔 Could we create only the related models for this feature to use snowflakes?
Could you share your experience so I could ease my hesitation. 😆

Thanks a lot!

Using: laravel nova, livewire

Only the internal ids/states need to use the snowflakes, your regular eloquent models can use whatever you want.

So this is ok? 🤔

class EmployeeInitializePoints extends Event
{
    #[StateId(EmployeeState::class)]
    public ?int $state_id = null; // the snowflake ID

    public ?int $customer_id = null; // my current auto inc IDs 
}

Looks fine to me
