This module provides a service to generate unique sequences of IDs, replacing a deprecated core feature. It allows developers to request the next ID in a named sequence, with optional configuration for offsets per entity type to prevent conflicts.
The method `Drupal\Core\Database\Connection::nextId()` and the `sequences` table are deprecated in Drupal 10 and are
removed from Drupal 11. See https://www.drupal.org/node/3349345
This module brings back a database driven functionality to get sequences as a service using a simple API.
Usage
$sequence_name = 'my_sequence';
$next_id = \Drupal::service('sequences.generator')->nextId($sequence_name);
Furthermore you can configure offsets per entity type. This can avoid ID conflicts when syncing entities between instances.
