Installation

composer require laravel-notification-channels/pubnub

Add the service provider to your config/app.php

// config/app.php
'providers' => [
    ...
    NotificationChannels\Pubnub\PubnubServiceProvider::class,
],

Setting up the PubNub service

Add your PubNub Publish Key, Subscribe Key and Secret Key to your config/services.php

// config/services.php
...

'pubnub' => [
    'publish_key'   => env('PUBNUB_PUBLISH_KEY'),
    'subscribe_key' => env('PUBNUB_SUBSCRIBE_KEY'),
    'secret_key'    => env('PUBNUB_SECRET_KEY'),
],

... 

Usage

use NotificationChannels\Pubnub\PubnubChannel;
use NotificationChannels\Pubnub\PubnubMessage;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;

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

    public function toPubnub($notifiable)
    {
        return (new PubnubMessage())
            ->channel('my_channel')
            ->title('My message title')
            ->body('My message body');
    }
}

Alternatively you may supply a channel specifically related to your notifiable by implementing the routeNotificationForPubnub() method.

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;

class User extends Model
{
    use Notifiable;
    
    public function routeNotificationForPubnub()
    {
        return $this->pubnub_channel;
    }
}

Sending a push notification. You may chain any of the withiOS(), withAndroid() and withWindows() methods to add push notifications to the message with each of the platforms.

use NotificationChannels\Pubnub\PubnubChannel;
use NotificationChannels\Pubnub\PubnubMessage;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;

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

    public function toPubnub($notifiable)
    {
        return (new PubnubMessage())
            ->channel('my_channel')
            ->title('Alert: Jon Doe Sent You A Message')
            ->body('Hi')
            ->withiOS(
                (new PubnubMessage())
                    ->sound('default')
                    ->badge(1)
            )
            ->withAndroid(
                (new PubnubMessage())
                    ->sound('notification')
                    ->icon('myicon')
            )
            ->withWindows(
                (new PubnubMessage())
                    ->type('toast')
                    ->delay(450);
            );
    }
}
