README

This package makes it easy to expose application data to There There. When a customer opens a ticket in There There, it will call your application to fetch relevant data and display it in the sidebar.

Support us

We invest a lot of resources into creating best in class open source packages. You can support us by buying one of our paid products.

We highly appreciate you sending us a postcard from your hometown, mentioning which of our package(s) you are using. You'll find our address on our contact page. We publish all received postcards on our virtual postcard wall.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require spatie/laravel-there-there

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="there-there-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    'secret' => env('THERE_THERE_SECRET'),
    'url' => '/there-there',
    'middleware' => [
        Spatie\ThereThere\Http\Middleware\IsValidThereThereRequest::class,
        'api',
    ],
];

Add the secret to your .env file. You can find it in your There There workspace settings.

THERE_THERE_SECRET=your-secret-here

Usage

In a service provider (for example AppServiceProvider), register a sidebar callback using the ThereThere facade:

use Spatie\ThereThere\Facades\ThereThere;
use Spatie\ThereThere\SidebarItem;
use Spatie\ThereThere\Http\Requests\ThereThereRequest;

ThereThere::sidebar(function (ThereThereRequest $request) {
    $user = User::firstWhere('email', $request->email());

    if (! $user) {
        return [];
    }

    return [
        SidebarItem::markdown('Name', $user->name),
        SidebarItem::date('Registered at', $user->created_at),
        SidebarItem::numeric('Total orders', $user->orders()->count()),
        SidebarItem::boolean('Is subscribed', $user->subscribed()),
    ];
});

Each SidebarItem has a name, value, and type. The following types are available:

The package will respond with JSON in this format:

{
    "data": [
        {"name": "Name", "value": "John Doe", "type": "markdown"},
        {"name": "Registered at", "value": "2024-01-15T10:30:00+00:00", "type": "date"},
        {"name": "Total orders", "value": 42, "type": "numeric"},
        {"name": "Is subscribed", "value": true, "type": "boolean"}
    ]
}

Security

All requests are verified using HMAC-SHA256 signatures. The package will reject any request without a valid X-There-There-Signature header.
