Laravel 9 Support

[patrickomeara]

This is a very well-written package, well done. I'm wondering if it's still actively being maintained as #4 has been merged but not yet released.

If you are looking for maintainers I'm happy to help out.

Hey @patrickomeara thanks for the kind words and you are right, I've be lacking a little in the maintenance department! You are more than welcome to help and contribute if this is something you'd like to do.

Are you using Segment or this package actively?

[patrickomeara]

I've been looking into segment, and I have implemented this package. Although I am re-evaluating my approach as I think I need a more granular event tracking system, where sales/marketing want to know different things to the dev team, in multiple destinations containing different metadata 😬 . So I am looking into laravel's event system to queue jobs to send to the different destinations as an alternative. I guess something similar to the notification channels.

One thing I really like about this package is sending the batch request after the response, that's a clever system. Well done.

Depending on which Segment plan you are on @patrickomeara you are able to control the flow of events to destinations via filters using the Segment UI so you can send 1 or more events in batch and then control the flow via Segment itself.

sending the batch request after the response

Thanks, that was one of the main features and reasons for building - no one wants 3-4 events being fires synchronously and slowing things down :)
