v5.2.0

Added

• Added the ability to configure the hashids alphabet

Added the ability to configure the hashids alphabet (#77)

You can now specify an alphabet field in your short-url.php config file so that you can specify the range of characters that the Hashids package will use when generating a key.

Huge thanks to @Victor-emil for this contribution!

Changed

• Updated the database migrations for the short_urls table

Updated the database migrations for the short_urls table (#80)

The initial migration that creates the short_urls table has now been updated to make some small improvements. The destination_url field has now been changed from a varchar field to a TEXT field to allow for longer destination URLs to be stored. The url_key field is now unique to prevent any race conditions that allowed duplicated keys to be stored in the database.

Huge thanks to @Victor-emil for this contribution too!
