Introduction

This package makes it easy to send notifications using RocketChat with Laravel 9.0+.

Contents

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

$ composer require team-nifty-gmbh/laravel-rocket-chat-notifications

Setting up the RocketChat service

In order to send message to RocketChat channels, you need to create a bot user with an access token in your RocketChat Application

You can publish the config file with:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="TeamNiftyGmbh\RocketChatNotifications\RocketChatNotificationsServiceProvider"

The config file looks as follows:

// config/rocket-chat.php
...
    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Default RocketChat Connection Name
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Here you may specify which RocketChat connections below you wish
    | to use as your default connection for all RocketChat notifications. Of course
    | you may use many connections at once using the RocketChat static methods or 
    | RocketChatMessage connection method.
    |
    */

    'default' => env('ROCKETCHAT_CONNECTION', 'rocket-chat'),

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | RocketChat Connections
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Here are each of the RocketChat connections setup for your application.
    |
    */

    'connections' => [

        'rocket-chat' => [
            // Base URL for RocketChat API server (https://your.rocketchat.server.com)
            'url' => env('ROCKETCHAT_URL'),
            'token' => env('ROCKETCHAT_TOKEN'),
            'user_id' => env('ROCKETCHAT_USER_ID')
        ]

    ]
...

If you have published the config file, you can add your RocketChat API server's base url, access token and user Id to config/rocket-chat.php. You can also create additional connections if you wish to serve multiple RocketChats in your application.

Usage

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

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use TeamNiftyGmbh\RocketChatNotifications\Channels\RocketChatNotificationChannel;
use TeamNiftyGmbh\RocketChatNotifications\Messages\RocketChatMessage;

class TaskCompleted extends Notification
{
    public function via(mixed $notifiable): array
    {
        return [
            RocketChatNotificationChannel::class
        ];
    }

    public function toRocketChat($notifiable): RocketChatMessage
    {
        return RocketChatMessage::create('Test Message');
    }
}

In order to let your notification know which RocketChat channel you are targeting, add the routeNotificationForRocketChat method to your Notifiable model:

public function routeNotificationForRocketChat(): string
{
    return 'channel_name';
}

Available Message methods

connection(): Sets the connection.

domain(): Sets the domain of your rocket chat server.

from(): Sets the sender's access token and user id.

to(): Specifies the channel id to send the notification to (overridden by routeNotificationForRocketChat if empty).

content(): Sets a content of the notification message. Supports Github flavoured markdown.

alias(): This will cause the message’s name to appear as the given alias, but your username will still display.

avatar(): This will make the avatar use the provided image url.

attachment(): This will add a single attachment.

attachments(): This will add multiple attachments.

clearAttachments(): This will remove all attachments.

Adding Attachment

There are several ways to add one or more attachments to a message

public function toRocketChat($notifiable)
{
    return RocketChatMessage::create('Test message')
        ->connection('rocket-chat') // optional to alter the default connection, overrides 'domain', 'to' and 'from'
        ->domain('https://your.rocketchat.server.com') //optional if set in config
        ->to('channel_name') // optional if set in config
        ->from('access_token', 'rocket_chat_user_id') // optional if set in config
        ->attachments([
            RocketChatAttachment::create()->imageUrl('test'),
            RocketChatAttachment::create(['image_url' => 'test']),
            new RocketChatAttachment(['image_url' => 'test']),
            [
                'image_url' => 'test'
            ]   
        ]);   
}

text(): The text to display for this attachment, it is different than the message’s text.

timestamp(): Displays the time next to the text portion. ISO8601 Zulu Date or instance of any \DateTime

thumbnailUrl(): An image that displays to the left of the text, looks better when this is relatively small.
