Standalone implementation of Laravel's SlackMessage classes from [illuminate/notifications](https://github.com/illuminate/notifications).

This package provides a mechanism for generating correctly formatted Slack messages and sending them via Guzzle. Ideal for use with simple Slack [inbound webhooks](https://api.slack.com/incoming-webhooks), but can also be used with API calls.

By [Simon Hampel](mailto:simon@hampelgroup.com) based on code by [Taylor Otwell](mailto:taylor@laravel.com) and licensed under the [MIT license](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT).

Prerequisites
-------------

[](#prerequisites)

You will need to supply a Guzzle client (^6.0|^7.0) to send the Slack messages.

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

[](#installation)

To install using composer, run the following command:

`composer require hampel/slack-message`

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Refer to Laravel's [Slack Notifications](https://laravel.com/docs/6.x/notifications#slack-notifications) documentation for information on generating Slack messages. The syntax is largely the same as that used by Laravel, but we do not need to use Notifiable classes - we can generate and send our Slack Messages directly.

```
use Carbon\Carbon;
use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use Hampel\SlackMessage\SlackMessage;
use Hampel\SlackMessage\SlackWebhook;

$url = 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/';
$slack = new SlackWebhook(new Client());

$message = $slack->message(function ($message) {
    $message
        ->content('Content')
        ->attachment(function ($attachment) {
            $attachment
                ->title('Laravel', 'https://laravel.com')
                ->content('Attachment Content')
                ->fallback('Attachment Fallback')
                ->fields([
                    'Project' => 'Laravel',
                ])
                ->footer('Laravel')
                ->footerIcon('https://laravel.com/fake.png')
                ->markdown(['text'])
                ->author('Author', 'https://laravel.com/fake_author', 'https://laravel.com/fake_author.png')
                ->timestamp(Carbon::now());
        });
});

$slack->send($url, $message);
```
