README

This package allows you to add a chat system to your Laravel 5 application

Obs: Chat copiado do musonza/chat apenas para o uso pessoal da Deskti

Installation

From the command line, run:

composer require deskti/laravel-chat

Add the service provider to your config\app.php the providers array

Deskti\Chat\ChatServiceProvider

You can use the facade for shorter code. Add this to your aliases:

'Chat' => Deskti\Chat\Facades\ChatFacade::class to your `config\app.php`

The class is bound to the ioC as chat

$chat = App::make('chat');

Publish the assets:

php artisan vendor:publish

This will publish database migrations and a configuration file chat.php in the Laravel config folder.

Usage

By default the package assumes you have a User model in the App namespace. However, you can update the user model in 'chat.php' published in the config folder.
