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

[](#installation)

Begin by installing this package through Composer. Run this command from the Terminal:

```
composer require aloha/twilio
```

If you're using Laravel 5.5+, this is all there is to do.

Should you still be on older versions of Laravel, the final steps for you are to add the service provider of the package and alias the package. To do this open your `config/app.php` file.

Integration for older versions of Laravel (5.5 -)
-------------------------------------------------

[](#integration-for-older-versions-of-laravel-55--)

To wire this up in your Laravel project, you need to add the service provider. Open `app.php`, and add a new item to the providers array.

```
'Stackout\Twilio\Support\Laravel\ServiceProvider',
```

This will register two new artisan commands for you:

- `twilio:sms`
- `twilio:call`

And make these objects resolvable from the IoC container:

- `Stackout\Twilio\Manager` (aliased as `twilio`)
- `Stackout\Twilio\TwilioInterface` (resolves a `Twilio` object, the default connection object created by the `Manager`).

There's a Facade class available for you, if you like. In your `app.php` config file add the following line to the `aliases` array if you want to use a short class name:

```
'Twilio' => 'Stackout\Twilio\Support\Laravel\Facade',
```

In Laravel 4 you can publish the default config file to `app/config/packages/aloha/twilio/config.php` with the artisan command `config:publish aloha/twilio`.

In Laravel 5 you can publish the default config file to `config/twilio.php` with the artisan command `vendor:publish --tag=config`. Or to ensure you publish only this package's tag use

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=config --provider=Stackout\Twilio\Support\Laravel\ServiceProvider
```

#### Facade

[](#facade)

The facade has the exact same methods as the `Stackout\Twilio\TwilioInterface`. First, include the `Facade` class at the top of your file:

```
use Twilio;
```

To send a message using the default entry from your `twilio` [config file](src/config/config.php):

```
Twilio::message($user->phone, $message);
```

One extra feature is that you can define which settings (and which sender phone number) to use:

```
Twilio::from('call_center')->message($user->phone, $message);
Twilio::from('board_room')->message($boss->phone, 'Hi there boss!');
```

Define multiple entries in your `twilio` [config file](src/config/config.php) to make use of this feature.

### Usage

[](#usage)

Creating a Twilio object. This object implements the `Stackout\Twilio\TwilioInterface`.

```
$twilio = new Stackout\Twilio\Twilio($accountId, $token, $fromNumber);
```

Sending a text message:

```
$twilio->message('+18085551212', 'Pink Elephants and Happy Rainbows');
```

Creating a call:

```
$twilio->call('+18085551212', 'http://foo.com/call.xml');
```

Generating a call and building the message in one go:

```
$twilio->call('+18085551212', function ($message) {
    $message->say('Hello');
    $message->play('https://api.twilio.com/cowbell.mp3', ['loop' => 5]);
});
```

Access the configured `Twilio\Rest\Client` object:

```
$sdk = $twilio->getTwilio();
```

You can also access this via the Facade as well:

```
$sdk = Twilio::getTwilio();
```

##### Pass as many optional parameters as you want

[](#pass-as-many-optional-parameters-as-you-want)

If you want to pass on extra optional parameters to the `messages->sendMessage(...)` method [from the Twilio SDK](https://www.twilio.com/docs/api/messaging/send-messages), you can do so by adding to the `message` method. All arguments are passed on, and the `from` field is prepended from configuration.

```
$twilio->message($to, $message, $mediaUrls, $params);
// passes all these arguments on.
```

The same is true for the [call method](https://www.twilio.com/docs/api/voice/call#post-parameters).

```
$twilio->call($to, $message, $params);
// passes all these arguments on.
```

#### Dummy class

[](#dummy-class)

There is a dummy implementation of the `TwilioInterface` available: `Stackout\Twilio\Dummy`. This class allows you to inject this instead of a working implementation in case you need to run quick integration tests.

#### Logging decorator

[](#logging-decorator)

There is one more class available for you: the `Stackout\Twilio\LoggingDecorator`. This class wraps any `TwilioInterface` object and logs whatever Twilio will do for you. It also takes a `Psr\Log\LoggerInterface` object (like Monolog) for logging, you know.

By default the service providers don't wrap objects with the `LoggingDecorator`, but it is at your disposal in case you want it. A possible use case is to construct a `TwilioInterface` object that logs what will happen, but doesn't actually call Twilio (using the Dummy class):

```
if (getenv('APP_ENV') === 'production') {
    $twilio = $container->make(\Stackout\Twilio\Manager::class);
} else {
    $psrLogger = $container->make(\Psr\Log\LoggerInterface::class);
    $twilio = new LoggingDecorator($psrLogger, new \Stackout\Twilio\Dummy());
}

// Inject it wherever you want.
$notifier = new Notifier($twilio);
```
