Laravel SMSGlobal

Use this package to send SMS with SmsGlobal

Installation

composer require salamwaddah/laravel-smsglobal-notifications-channel

Configure

In your services.php config file add the following configs.

    // ... 
    
    'sms_global' => [
        'debug' => env('SMS_GLOBAL_DEBUG', true),
        'api_key' => env('SMS_GLOBAL_API_KEY'),
        'api_secret' => env('SMS_GLOBAL_API_SECRET'),
        'origin' => 'YourCompanyName',
    ],

Debug Mode

Debug mode is on by default, which means SMS will not be actually sent, instead only a log record will be added to /storage/logs/laravel.log

In your services.php change the value of sms_global.debug to false

Usage

Notification class

Using Laravel notification class add SmsGlobalChannel::class to via() method like so:

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use SalamWaddah\SmsGlobal\SmsGlobalChannel;
use SalamWaddah\SmsGlobal\SmsGlobalMessage;

class OrderPaid extends Notification
{

    public function via($notifiable): array
    {
        return [
            SmsGlobalChannel::class,
        ];
    }

    public function toSmsGlobal($notifiable): SmsGlobalMessage
    {
        $message = 'Order paid, Thank you for your business!';

        $smsGlobal = new SmsGlobalMessage();

        return $smsGlobal->to($notifiable->phone)->content($message);
    }
}

On demand notification

You can utilize Laravel on-demand notification facade to send SMS directly to a phone number without having to store a user in your application.

Notification::send(
    '+971555555555',
    new OrderPaid($order)
);

The notifiable argument in toSmsGlobal of your notification class should expect the same data type you passed to the Notification facade.

In this example, we passed the phone number as a string because we don't have a "user" and so toSmsGlobal should expect a string.

public function toSmsGlobal(string $phoneNumber): SmsGlobalMessage
{
    $message = 'Order paid, Thank you for your business!';

    $smsGlobal = new SmsGlobalMessage();

    return $smsGlobal->to($phoneNumber)->content($message);
}
