Communicator is a PHP library that helps you broadcast messages over multiple channels. This can be useful when you want to send notifcations to users via multiple transports such as e-mail, SMS or IRC.

Install
-------

[](#install)

Via Composer

```
$ composer require waltertamboer/communicator
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Since communicator doesn't know where to send messages to, you need to implement the `Communicator\Recipient\RecipientInterface` interface. Communicator will use it to determine the target addresses.

```
$recipient = new ... // An implementation of Communicator\Recipient\RecipientInterface

$communicator = new Communicator\Communicator();

// Bind a transport. Of course this can be any transport you require.
// It's also possible to bind multiple transports to the same channel.
$communicator->bindTransport('my-channel', new Communicator\Transport\Noop\Transport());

// Now broadcast a message to all transports.
$communicator->broadcast(
    [
        $recipient,
    ],
    'my-channel',
    [
        'my-param' => 'some param',
    ]
);
```
