});

```

Customization
-------------

[](#customization)

Publish the package config:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Chencha\Share\ShareServiceProvider'

```

Add a new service in config/social-share.php:

```
'mynewservice' => [ 'view' => 'share.mynewservice' ]

```

Add Blade templating code in *share.mynewservice* view file to generate a URL for *mynewservice*. You have access to:

- service - the service definition (shown above).
- sep - separator used between parameters, defaults to '&'. Configurable as *social-share.separator*.
- url - the URL being shared.
- title - the title being shared.
- media - media link being shared.

Example:

```
https://mynewservice.example.com?url={{ rawurlencode($url) }}title={{ rawurlencode("Check this out! $title. See it here: $url") }}

```

Another example for the *email* service. Change the service config to be *\[ 'view' => 'whatever' \]* and put this in the view file:

```
mailto:?subject={{ rawurlencode("Wow, check this: $title") }}body={{ rawurlencode("Check this out! $title. See it here: $url") }}

```

Localizing? Easy, use Laravel's trans() call:

```
mailto:?subject={{ rawurlencode(trans('share.email-subject', compact('url', 'title', 'media'))) }}body={{ rawurlencode(trans('share.email-body', compact('url', 'title', 'media'))) }}

```

Create a file at resources/lang/en/share.php with your choice of subject and body. URLs arguably have a maximum length of 2000 characters.

Notice the use of . It's the only way to print out an unencoded ampersand (if configured that way).

Upgrades
--------

[](#upgrades)

When the package is upgraded, changes to the config and views should be republished into your project:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider='Chencha\Share\ShareServiceProvider'

```

Use source control to work out what has changed if you have customized the files.
