Usage

Routing Pushbullet notifications

In order to send notifications to Pushbullet you need to specify recipient for each notifiable entity. There are currently 2 options: pushbullet email or device id of recipient. To provide library with correct notification recipient you need to define routeNotificationForPushbullet method on notifiable entity.

Sending notification to email:

public function routeNotificationForPushbullet()
{
    return new \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\Targets\Email($this->email);
}

Sending notification to device id:

public function routeNotificationForPushbullet()
{
    return new \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\Targets\Device($this->pushbullet_device_id);
}

Sending notification to all subscribers of channel that has tag:

public function routeNotificationForPushbullet()
{
    return new \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\Targets\Channel($this->channel_tag);
}

Sending notification to all of the user's devices

public function routeNotificationForPushbullet()
{
    return new \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\Targets\UserDevices();
}

via Method

On notification entity just add \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\PushbulletChannel::class item to array that is returned from via method.

toPushbullet Method

In your notification class you also should define toPushbullet method which will return instance of \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\PushbulletMessage.

/**
 * Get the pushbullet representation of the notification.
 *
 * @param  mixed  $notifiable
 * @return \NotificationChannels\Pushbullet\PushbulletMessage
 */
public function toPushbullet($notifiable)
{
    $url = url('/invoice/' . $this->invoice->id);

    return PushbulletMessage::create('Thank you for using our application!')
        ->link()
        ->title('One of your invoices has been paid!')
        ->url($url);
}
