Afterburner Communications Package
==================================

[](#afterburner-communications-package)

Team-scoped announcements and discussion threads for Laravel Afterburner Jetstream.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- **Announcements** — role-targeted posts, read tracking, scheduled email (`announcements:send-scheduled`)
- **Discussion threads** — scopes: `council`, `team`, `property` (optional lot link)

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

[](#installation)

### Local Development Setup

[](#local-development-setup)

For local development, add the package as a path repository:

```
composer config repositories.afterburner-communications path ../afterburner-communications
composer require laravel-afterburner/communications:@dev
```

### Quick Install (Recommended)

[](#quick-install-recommended)

```
composer require laravel-afterburner/communications
php artisan afterburner:communications:install
```

The install command will:

- Publish config and views
- Add communications environment variables to `.env` and `.env.example` when present
- Optionally run migrations and seed permissions

### Manual Install

[](#manual-install)

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=afterburner-communications-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=afterburner-communications-assets
php artisan migrate
php artisan db:seed --class="Afterburner\\Communications\\Database\\Seeders\\CommunicationsPermissionsSeeder"
```

If you use `migrate:fresh --seed`, register `CommunicationsPermissionsSeeder` with your app's `PackageSeederRegistry` (or call it from `DatabaseSeeder`) so discussion permissions are assigned beyond the default role templates.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Environment variables (added by the install command):

```
AFTERBURNER_COMMUNICATIONS_ENABLED=true
AFTERBURNER_COMMUNICATIONS_DISCUSSIONS_ENABLED=true
```

Package options live in `config/afterburner-communications.php`. Discussions default on when `afterburner.entity_label` is `strata`.

Permissions
-----------

[](#permissions)

SlugPurpose`post_announcements`Create and manage team announcements`create_discussions`Start new discussion threads`edit_discussions`Edit thread title, scope, and properties`archive_discussions`Archive and restore threads`lock_discussions`Lock and unlock threads`delete_discussions`Permanently delete threads`moderate_discussion_posts`Edit or delete other members' postsExisting installs that still assign the legacy `manage_discussions` slug receive the full set of discussion permissions when the seeder runs again.

Seeded via `CommunicationsPermissionsSeeder` (registered with `PackageSeederRegistry`).

Events (host listeners)
-----------------------

[](#events-host-listeners)

- `AnnouncementPublished`
- `ThreadCreated`

Scheduled Tasks
---------------

[](#scheduled-tasks)

Register in your host app:

```
$schedule->command('announcements:send-scheduled')->everyMinute();
```
