Usage

Configuration

To configure Doctrine to use ramsey/uuid as a field type, you'll need to set up the following in your bootstrap:

\Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Type::addType('uuid', 'Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType');

In Symfony:

# config/packages/doctrine.yaml
doctrine:
    dbal:
        types:
            uuid: Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType

In Zend Framework:

<?php
// module.config.php
use Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType;

return [
    'doctrine' => [
        'configuration' => [
            'orm_default' => [
                'types' => [
                    UuidType::NAME => UuidType::class,

In Laravel:

<?php
// config/doctrine.php
    'custom_types'               => [
        \Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType::NAME => \Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType::class
    ],

In roave/psr-container-doctrine:

<?php
use Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType;

return [
    'doctrine' => [
        'types' => [
            UuidType::NAME => UuidType::class,
        ],
        /* ... */
    ],
    /* ... */
];

Mappings

Then, in your models, you may annotate properties by setting the #[Column] type to uuid, and defining a custom generator of Ramsey\Uuid\UuidGenerator. Doctrine will handle the rest.

use Doctrine\ORM\Mapping as ORM;
use Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidGenerator;
use Ramsey\Uuid\UuidInterface;


#[ORM\Entity]
#[ORM\Table(name: "products")]
class Product
{
    #[ORM\Id]
    #[ORM\Column(type: "uuid", unique: true)]
    #[ORM\GeneratedValue(strategy: "CUSTOM")]
    #[ORM\CustomIdGenerator(class: UuidGenerator::class)]
    protected UuidInterface $id;

    public function getId(): UuidInterface
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

If you use the XML Mapping instead of PHP attributes.

<id name="id" column="id" type="uuid">
    <generator strategy="CUSTOM"/>
    <custom-id-generator class="Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidGenerator"/>
</id>

You can also use the YAML Mapping.

id:
    id:
        type: uuid
        generator:
            strategy: CUSTOM
        customIdGenerator:
            class: Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidGenerator

Binary database columns

In the previous example, Doctrine will create a database column of type CHAR(36) if MariaDB / MySQL are in use, but you may also use this library to store UUIDs as binary strings. The UuidBinaryType helps accomplish this.

In your bootstrap, place the following:

\Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Type::addType('uuid_binary', 'Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidBinaryType');
$entityManager->getConnection()->getDatabasePlatform()->registerDoctrineTypeMapping('uuid_binary', 'binary');

In Symfony:

# config/packages/doctrine.yaml
doctrine:
    dbal:
        types:
            uuid_binary:  Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidBinaryType
# Uncomment if using doctrine/orm <2.8
        # mapping_types:
            # uuid_binary: binary

Then, when annotating model class properties, use uuid_binary instead of uuid:

#[Column(type: "uuid_binary")]

InnoDB-optimised binary UUIDs - deprecated

More suitable if you want to use UUIDs as primary key. Note that this can cause unintended effects if:

  • decoding bytes that were not generated using this method
  • another code (that isn't aware of this method) attempts to decode the resulting bytes

More information in this Percona article and UUID Talk by Ben Ramsey (starts at slide 58).

\Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Type::addType('uuid_binary_ordered_time', 'Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidBinaryOrderedTimeType');
$entityManager->getConnection()->getDatabasePlatform()->registerDoctrineTypeMapping('uuid_binary_ordered_time', 'binary');

In Symfony:

# config/packages/doctrine.yaml
doctrine:
   dbal:
       types:
           uuid_binary_ordered_time: Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidBinaryOrderedTimeType
# Uncomment if using doctrine/orm <2.8
       # mapping_types:
           # uuid_binary_ordered_time: binary

Then, in your models, you may annotate properties by setting the @Column type to uuid_binary_ordered_time, and defining a custom generator of Ramsey\Uuid\UuidOrderedTimeGenerator. Doctrine will handle the rest.

#[Entity]
#[Table(name: "products")]´
class Product
{
    #[Id]
    #[Column(type: "uuid_binary_ordered_time", unique: true)]
    #[GeneratedValue(strategy: "CUSTOM")]
    #[CustomIdGenerator(class: UuidOrderedTimeGenerator::class)]
    protected UuidInterface $id;

    public function getId(): UuidInterface
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

If you use the XML Mapping instead of PHP annotations.

<id name="id" column="id" type="uuid_binary_ordered_time">
    <generator strategy="CUSTOM"/>
    <custom-id-generator class="Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidOrderedTimeGenerator"/>
</id>

InnoDB-optimised binary UUIDs - new way

With the introduction of new UUID types (including sortable, unix epoch based UUID version 7) it is now recommended to use regular uuid_binary with Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidV7Generator for primary keys.

In your bootstrap, place the following:

\Doctrine\DBAL\Types\Type::addType('uuid_binary', 'Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidBinaryType');
$entityManager->getConnection()->getDatabasePlatform()->registerDoctrineTypeMapping('uuid_binary', 'binary');

In Symfony:

# config/packages/doctrine.yaml
doctrine:
    dbal:
        types:
            uuid_binary:  Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidBinaryType
# Uncomment if using doctrine/orm <2.8
        # mapping_types:
            # uuid_binary: binary

Then, in your models, you may annotate properties by setting the #[Column] type to uuid_binary, and defining a custom generator of Ramsey\Uuid\UuidV7Generator. Doctrine will handle the rest.

#[Entity]
#[Table(name: "products")]
class Product
{
    #[Id]
    #[Column(type: "uuid_binary", unique: true)]
    #[GeneratedValue(strategy: "CUSTOM")]
    #[CustomIdGenerator(class: UuidV7Generator::class)]
    protected UuidInterface $id;

    public function getId(): UuidInterface
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

If you use the XML Mapping instead of PHP annotations.

<id name="id" column="id" type="uuid_binary">
    <generator strategy="CUSTOM"/>
    <custom-id-generator class="Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidV7Generator"/>
</id>

PostgreSQL considerations

If you are using PostgreSQL, Doctrine uses PostgreSQL's uuid for the Ramsey\Uuid\Doctrine\UuidType (uuid). Therefor you don't need to use the uuid_binary / uuid_binary_ordered_time types when using PostgreSQL. You can still use UuidV7Generator::class to optimize indexing though.

#[Entity]
#[Table(name: "products")]
class Product
{
    #[Id]
    #[Column(type: "uuid", unique: true)]
    #[GeneratedValue(strategy: "CUSTOM")]
    #[CustomIdGenerator(class: UuidV7Generator::class)]
    protected UuidInterface $id;

    public function getId(): UuidInterface
    {
        return $this->id;
    }
}

Working with binary identifiers

When working with binary identifiers you may wish to convert them into a readable format. As of MySql 8.0 you can use the BIN_TO_UUID and UUID_TO_BIN functions documented here. The second argument determines if the byte order should be swapped, therefore when using uuid_binary you should pass 0 and when using uuid_binary_ordered_time you should pass 1.

For other versions you can use the following:

DELIMITER $$

CREATE
    FUNCTION BIN_TO_UUID(bin_uuid BINARY(16), swap_flag BOOLEAN)
    RETURNS CHAR(36)
    DETERMINISTIC
    BEGIN
       DECLARE hex_uuid CHAR(32);
       SET hex_uuid = HEX(bin_uuid);
       RETURN LOWER(CONCAT(
            IF(swap_flag, SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 9, 8),SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 1, 8)), '-',
            IF(swap_flag, SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 5, 4),SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 9, 4)), '-',
            IF(swap_flag, SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 1, 4),SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 13, 4)), '-',
            SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 17, 4), '-',
            SUBSTR(hex_uuid, 21)
        ));
    END$$


CREATE
    FUNCTION UUID_TO_BIN(str_uuid CHAR(36), swap_flag BOOLEAN)
    RETURNS BINARY(16)
    DETERMINISTIC
    BEGIN
      RETURN UNHEX(CONCAT(
          IF(swap_flag, SUBSTR(str_uuid, 15, 4),SUBSTR(str_uuid, 1, 8)),
          SUBSTR(str_uuid, 10, 4),
          IF(swap_flag, SUBSTR(str_uuid, 1, 8),SUBSTR(str_uuid, 15, 4)),
          SUBSTR(str_uuid, 20, 4),
          SUBSTR(str_uuid, 25))
      );
    END$$

DELIMITER ;
