Laravel Telegram Ray
====================

[](#laravel-telegram-ray)

A simple and convenient Laravel package that adds a `ray()` helper function for sending debug information directly to your Telegram chat. It’s a great alternative to Xdebug, `dd()`, or `dump()`, especially when working on a remote server or when you want to receive instant notifications.

---

\## Features
------------

[](#-features)

- **Easy to use:** Familiar `ray()` function available anywhere in your Laravel application.
- **Any data:** Send strings, arrays, objects, collections, Eloquent models, and even exceptions.
- **Full context:** Each message automatically includes:

    - Project name
    - Relative file path and line number where the function was called
    - Full request URL, including all GET parameters
- **Flexible configuration:** All settings are handled in the `.env` file.
- **Easily disabled:** You can enable or disable the function entirely with one `.env` variable, without changing your code.

---

\## Installation
----------------

[](#-installation)

1. Install the package via Composer:

    ```
    composer require uitlaber/laravel-telegram-ray
    ```
2. Publish the configuration file:

    ```
    php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Uitlaber\LaravelTelegramRay\TelegramRayServiceProvider"
    ```

    This will create the file `config/telegram-ray.php`.

---

\## Configuration
-----------------

[](#-configuration)

Before using the package, you need to obtain your **bot token** and **chat ID** from Telegram.

1. **Bot token:** Create a new bot using **@BotFather** in Telegram and copy the API token it provides.
2. **Chat ID:** Open the **@userinfobot** in Telegram, start it, and it will send you your personal chat ID.

Now add these values and the `ENABLE_RAY_TELEGRAM` toggle to your `.env` file:

```
# .env

# Enables (true) or disables (false) sending messages
ENABLE_RAY_TELEGRAM=true

# Your bot token from @BotFather
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="YOUR:BOT_TOKEN"

# Your chat ID from @userinfobot
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID="YOUR_CHAT_ID"
```

---

\## Usage
---------

[](#-usage)

You can call the `ray()` function anywhere in your Laravel application — in routes, controllers, models, services, or even inside Blade templates (within `@php ... @endphp`).

#### **Examples:**

[](#examples)

**Send a simple message:**

```
Route::get('/', function () {
    ray('User visited the homepage.');
    return view('welcome');
});
```

**Send an array or object:**

```
use App\Models\User;

$user = User::find(1);
ray($user->toArray());
```

**Send an exception:**

```
try {
    // Code that might throw an error
    throw new \Exception('Something went wrong!');
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    ray($e);
}
```

#### **Example in Blade:**

[](#example-in-blade)

```
@php
    $data = ['product_id' => 123, 'status' => 'pending'];
    ray($data);
@endphp

Product Card
```

\## Example Message in Telegram
-------------------------------

[](#-example-message-in-telegram)

Here’s how a debug message will appear in your Telegram chat:

> 🚀 **Laravel**📄 `routes/web.php:6`📍 `[GET] http://sandbox.test/?data=1`
>
> ```
> {
>     "id": 1,
>     "name": "Damir",
>     "email": "damir@example.com"
> }
> ```
