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

[](#installation)

You can install this package via composer:

```
composer require navraj-sharma/sparrowsms
```

### Setting up the SparrowSMS service

[](#setting-up-the-sparrowsms-service)

Add your SparrowSMS configurations to your config/sparrowsms.php:

```
// config/sparrowsms.php
...
    return [
    'token' => env('SPARROWSMS_TOKEN'),
    'from' => env('SPARROWSMS_FROM'),
    'api_endpoint' => env('SPARROWSMS_API_ENDPOINT', 'http://api.sparrowsms.com/v2/'),
    'sandbox' =>  env('SPARROWSMS_SANDBOX', false),

    'methods' => [
        'send' => 'sms/',
        'credit' => 'credit/'
    ],

    'debug' =>  env('APP_DEBUG', false),
]
...
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You can use the channel in your via() method inside the notification:

```
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use NavrajSharma\SparrowSMS\SparrowSMSMessage;

class SendSMS extends Notification
{
    public function via($notifiable)
    {
        return ["sparrowsms"];
    }

    public function toSparrowSMS($notifiable)
    {
        return (new SparrowSMSMessage("SMS Sent Via SparrowSMS Service"));
    }
}
```

In your notifiable model, make sure to include a routeNotificationForSparrowSMS() method, which returns a phone number or an array of phone numbers.

```
public function routeNotificationForSparrowSMS()
{
    return $this->mobile;
}
```

### On-Demand Notifications

[](#on-demand-notifications)

Sometimes you may need to send a notification to someone who is not stored as a "user" of your application. Using the Notification::route method, you may specify ad-hoc notification routing information before sending the notification:

```
Notification::route('sparrowsms', '9801110000')
            ->notify(new SendSMS());
```
