I created a package to work with MySQL insert on duplicate key.

It may be useful for others:

https://packagist.org/packages/yadakhov/insert-on-duplicate-key

Example:

/**
 * Class User.
 */
class User extends Model
{
    use Yadakhov\InsertOnDuplicateKey;
    ...
}

// associative array must match column names
$users = [
    ['id' => 1, 'email' => 'user1@email.com', 'name' => 'User One'],
    ['id' => 2, 'email' => 'user2@email.com', 'name' => 'User Two'],
    ['id' => 3, 'email' => 'user3@email.com', 'name' => 'User Three'],
];

User::insertOnDuplicateKey($users);
