# sikofitt/generate-mac
### Small library to generate unique private mac addresses
#### Install
[composer](https://getcomposer.org)
```bash
composer require sikofitt/generate-mac
```
#### Usage
```php
use Sikofitt\GenerateMac\Mac;
$mac = new Mac(); // default is ':'
// or
$mac->setSeparator(Mac::SEPARATOR_COLON);
$address = $mac->getAddress(); // ab:cd:ef:01:23:45
$mac = new Mac(Mac::SEPARATOR_DASH);
// or
$mac->setSeparator(Mac::SEPARATOR_DASH);
$address = $mac->getAddress(); // ab-cd-ef-01-23-45
$mac = new Mac(Mac::SEPARATOR_NONE);
// or
$mac->setSeparator(Mac::SEPARATOR_NONE);
$address = $mac->getAddress(); // abcdef012345
```
If you don't care that it is unique you can remove the check for private mac prefixes.
```php
$mac = new Mac(Mac::SEPARATOR_COLON, false);
// or
$mac->setUnique(false);
$address = $mac->getAddress();
// '52:54:00:ab:cd:ef', QEMU virtual NIC prefix 52:54:00
// It's really not likely there will be a collision though.
```
Generate multiple mac addresses
```php
$addresses = $mac->getAddresses(10);
var_dump($addresses);
/*
* array (
* 0 => '8a:20:0b:b7:c4:62',
* 1 => '56:7d:47:56:e8:bd',
* 2 => '2a:ae:7b:44:6f:9d',
* 3 => '6a:36:1a:7c:04:3a',
* 4 => '3a:3d:93:f5:a6:12',
* 5 => '8a:85:ce:11:2c:a2',
* 6 => '06:54:6f:b1:11:48',
* 7 => 'c6:fe:9d:86:38:dd',
* 8 => 'ba:39:b3:a2:a1:fa',
* 9 => '32:73:c0:b3:62:27',
* );
*/
// if you call this with 1 as the count it will still
// return an array [0 => '32:73:c0:b3:62:27']
```
