Laravel-FCM
===========

[](#laravel-fcm)

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

Laravel-FCM is an easy to use package working with both Laravel and Lumen for sending push notification with [Firebase Cloud Messaging](https://firebase.google.com/docs/cloud-messaging/) (FCM).

It currently **only supports HTTP protocol** for :

- sending a downstream message to one device

> Note: The XMPP protocol is not currently supported.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

To get the latest version of Laravel-FCM on your project, require it from "composer":

```
$ composer require cimons/larafcm:dev-master

```

Or you can add it directly in your composer.json file:

```
{
	"require": {
    	   "cimons/larafcm": "dev-master"
	}
}

```

### Laravel

[](#laravel)

Register the provider directly in your app configuration file config/app.php `config/app.php`:

```
'providers' => [
	// ...

	Cimons\LaraFcm\LaraFcmServiceProvider::class,
]
```

Add the facade aliases in the same file:

```
'aliases' => [
	...
	'FCM'             => Cimons\LaraFcm\Facades\FCM::class,
]
```

Copy the config file `fcm.php` manually from the directory `/vendor/cimons/larafcm/config` to the directory `/config ` (you may need to create this directory).

### Package Configuration

[](#package-configuration)

In your `.env` file, add the server key and the secret key for the Firebase Cloud Messaging:

```
FCM_SERVER_KEY=my_secret_server_key
FCM_SENDER_ID=my_secret_sender_id
```

### Downstream Messages

[](#downstream-messages)

A downstream message is a notification message, a data message, or both, that you send to a target device or to multiple target devices using its registration\_Ids.

The following use statements are required for the examples below:

```
use Cimons\LaraFcm\Message\NotificationBuilder;
use Cimons\LaraFcm\Facades\FCM;
```

#### Sending a Downstream Message to a Device

[](#sending-a-downstream-message-to-a-device)

```
$notificationBuilder = NotificationBuilder('my title');
$notificationBuilder->setBody('Hello world')
				    ->setSound('default');
$notification = $notificationBuilder->build();

$token = "a_registration_from_your_database";
$downstreamResponse = FCM::sendTo($token, $notification);

if ($downstreamResponse->isSent == 1) {
     echo "The message has been sent.";
} else {
    echo "The message could not be sent."
}
```
