README

This package provides a simple and efficient way to integrate WhatsApp Cloud API functionality into your Laravel application.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require joemunapo/whatsapp-php

Configuration

After installation, publish the configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Joemunapo\Whatsapp\WhatsappServiceProvider"

Update the published config file in config/whatsapp.php:

return [
    'account_model' => \App\Models\Business::class,
    'fields' => [
        'number_id' => 'number_id',
        'token' => 'whatsapp_token',
        'catalog_id' => 'catalog_id',
    ],
];

Ensure your database model (e.g., Business) has the necessary fields to store WhatsApp account details.

Usage

Initializing the WhatsApp instance

use Joemunapo\Whatsapp\Whatsapp;

$whatsapp = Whatsapp::useNumberId('your_whatsapp_number_id');

Sending a Text Message

$to = '1234567890';
$content = (object) [
    'type' => 'text',
    'text' => [
        'body' => 'Hello, World!'
    ]
];

$messageId = $whatsapp->sendMessage($to, $content);

Sending an Interactive Message (Buttons)

$content = (object) [
    'type' => 'interactive',
    'text' => 'Please choose an option:',
    'buttons' => ['Option 1', 'Option 2', 'Option 3']
];

$whatsapp->sendMessage($to, $content);

Sending Media

$mediaType = 'image';
$mediaUrl = 'https://example.com/image.jpg';
$caption = 'Check out this image!';

$whatsapp->sendMedia($to, $mediaType, $mediaUrl, $caption);

Sending a Template Message

$templateName = 'hello_world';
$languageCode = 'en_US';
$components = [
    [
        'type' => 'body',
        'parameters' => [
            ['type' => 'text', 'text' => 'John Doe']
        ]
    ]
];

$whatsapp->sendTemplate($to, $templateName, $languageCode, $components);

Handling Webhooks

$payload = // ... webhook payload from WhatsApp
$message = Whatsapp::handleWebhook($payload);

if ($message) {
    // Process the message
    $message->reply('Thank you for your message!');
}

Getting Media

When you receive a message with media (like an image, video, or document), you can retrieve the media content using the getMedia method:

$mediaId = 'media_id_from_webhook_payload';
$mediaInfo = $whatsapp->getMedia($mediaId);

// The $mediaInfo will contain details about the media, including the URL to download it
$mediaUrl = $mediaInfo['url'];

// You can then download and process the media as needed
