Installation

Install this package with Composer:

composer require laravel-notification-channels/gitter

If you're using Laravel 5.x you'll also need to specify a version constraint:

composer require laravel-notification-channels/gitter -v 1.0.1

Setting up the Gitter service

In order to send message to Gitter rooms, you need to obtain Personal Access Token or application token.

Usage

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

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use NotificationChannels\Gitter\GitterMessage;
use NotificationChannels\Gitter\GitterChannel;

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

    public function toGitter($notifiable)
    {
        return GitterMessage::create("Task #{$notifiable->id} is complete!")
            ->room('room_id') // optional
            ->from('user_or_app_access_token');
    }
}

In order to let your notification know which Gitter room you are targeting, add the routeNotificationForGitter method to your Notifiable model:

public function routeNotificationForGitter()
{
    return 'room_id';
}

Available methods

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

room(): Specifies the room id to send the notification to (overridden by routeNotificationForGitter if empty).

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