Installation

To get the latest version of Pushbullet Notification channel for Laravel 5.3+, simply require the project using Composer:

$ composer require norris1z/hubtel-laravel-sms-channel

If you use Laravel 5.5+ you don't need the following step. If not, once package is installed, you need to register the service provider. Open up config/app.php and add the following to the providers key.

• NotificationChannels\Hubtel\HubtelServiceProvider::class

Setting up the Hubtel service

In your Hubtel account go to Applications page. Click on the details of the desired application and copy your apiKey and apiSecret

In your terminal run

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="NotificationChannels\Hubtel\HubtelServiceProvider"

This creates a hubtel.php file in your config directory.

Paste your apiCredentials in the config/hubtel.php configuration file. You may copy the example configuration below to get started:

'account' => [
        'key' => env('HUBTEL_API_KEY'),
        'secret' => env('HUBTEL_API_SECRET')
]

Or

Add the HUBTEL_API_KEY and HUBTEL_API_SECRET to your .env file

Usage

Now you can use the channel in your via() method inside the notification:

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use NotificationChannels\Hubtel\HubtelChannel;
use NotificationChannels\Hubtel\HubtelMessage;

class SayHello extends Notification
{
    public function via($notifiable)
    {
        return [HubtelChannel::class];
    }

    public function toSMS($notifiable)
    {
        return (new HubtelMessage)
			->from("JabClari")
			->to("2331234567890")
           	 	->content("Kim Kippo... Sup with you");
    }
}

In order to let your Notification know which phone number you are sending to, add the routeNotificationForSMS method to your Notifiable model e.g your User Model

public function routeNotificationForSMS()
{
    return $this->phone; // where phone is a cloumn in your users table;
}
