In your config/broadcasting.php file set the default driver to 'postgresql' and add the connection configuration like so:

'default' => 'postgresql',

'connections' => [
    ...
    'postgresql' => [
            'driver' => 'postgresql',
            'connection' => env('BROADCAST_PG_DB','pgsql')
        ]
    ...
]
```

Usage

[](#usage)

Add a custom broadcast event to your application like so:

```
namespace App\Events;

use Illuminate\Contracts\Broadcasting\ShouldBroadcast;

class Message extends Event implements ShouldBroadcast
{
    protected $message;

    public function __construct($message)
    {
        $this->message= $message;
    }

    public function broadcastOn()
    {
        return ['MessageChannel'];
    }

    public function broadcastWith()
    {
        return ['message' => $this->message];
    }
}
```

Now to publish in your application simply fire the event:

```
event(new App\Events\Message('Test publish!!!'));
```
