Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require karacweb/kchat-notification-channel

Next, if you're using Laravel without auto-discovery, add the service provider to config/app.php:

'providers' => [
    // ...
    NotificationChannels\KChat\KChatServiceProvider::class,
],

Setting up the kChat service

• Create a token with the scope kchat
• Retrieve the Url of your kChat instance, it should look like https://your-team.kchat.infomaniak.com.
• Paste the token and your kChat base Url in your config/services.php file:

  // config/services.php
  'infomaniak_kchat' => [
      'token' => 'YOUR_API_TOKEN',
      'base_url' => 'https://your-team.kchat.infomaniak.com' 
  ],
  

Usage

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

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use NotificationChannels\KChat\KChatChannel;
use NotificationChannels\KChat\KChatMessage;

class BackupSucceeded extends Notification
{
    public function via($notifiable)
    {
        return [KChatChannel::class];
    }

    public function toKChat($notifiable)
    {
        return KChatMessage::create()
            ->to("123456789")
            ->content('The backup of your application succeeded')
            ->commentTo('987654321'); // A post ID you wish to respond to
    }
}

Instead of using the to($channel_id) method for specifying the channel ID you can also add the routeNotificationForKChat method inside your Notifiable model. This method needs to return the channel ID.

public function routeNotificationForKChat(Notification $notification)
{
    return '123456789';
}

Available Message methods

• to(string $channel_id): The channel to send the message to.
• content(string $content): Content of the message (Markdown supported).
• commentTo(string $post_id): A post ID you wish to respond to.

Retrieve the kChat channel ID

Use Markdown in the message

        ->content(view('notificationTemplate', [
            'variable' => 'ABC',
        ]));
