README

A Laravel package to send Slack notifications when a new user registers on your application.

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

composer require gsouillard/laravel-new-user-slack-notifier

Configuration

After installing the package, publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=config

This will create a configuration file named slack-new-user-notifier.php in your config directory.

Configuration Options

• webhook_url: The Slack Webhook URL where the notifications will be sent. This should be set in your .env file as SLACK_NEW_USER_NOTIFIER_WEBHOOK_URL.
• app_name: The name of your application, which will be included in the Slack notification. It defaults to the APP_NAME defined in your .env file, but you can override it in the configuration file.
• event_to_listen: Determines which event to listen to. You can set this to Registered (default) or Verified to send notifications based on the specific event.

Example configuration:

return [
    'webhook_url' => env('SLACK_NEW_USER_NOTIFIER_WEBHOOK_URL', ''),
    'app_name' => env('APP_NAME', 'Your Application'), // Default: APP_NAME
    'event_to_listen' => env('SLACK_NEW_USER_NOTIFIER_EVENT', 'Registered'), // Default: Registered
];

Usage

This package works by listening to either the Registered or Verified events in Laravel. By default, it listens to the Registered event. You can change this by setting the event_to_listen configuration option.

In your EventServiceProvider, the package automatically registers the listener based on your configuration:

use YourNamespace\SlackNotifier\SlackNotifier;
use Illuminate\Auth\Events\Registered;
use Illuminate\Auth\Events\Verified;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Event;

class EventServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot()
    {
        parent::boot();

        $eventToListen = config('slack-new-user-notifier.event_to_listen', 'Registered');

        if ($eventToListen === 'Verified') {
            Event::listen(Verified::class, function ($event) {
                SlackNotifier::notify($event->user->email);
            });
        } else {
            Event::listen(Registered::class, function ($event) {
                SlackNotifier::notify($event->user->email);
            });
        }
    }
}

Example .env Configuration

In your .env file, add:

SLACK_NEW_USER_NOTIFIER_WEBHOOK_URL=https://hooks.slack.com/services/XXXXX/XXXXX/XXXXX
APP_NAME=My Awesome App
SLACK_NEW_USER_NOTIFIER_EVENT=Registered

Set SLACK_NEW_USER_NOTIFIER_EVENT to Verified if you want to send notifications only after the user verifies their email.

Testing

To run the tests, you can use PHPUnit:

vendor/bin/phpunit
