Usage

You can use the Bandwidth channel in the via() method inside your Notification class:

<?php

namespace App\Notifications;

use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use NotificationChannels\Bandwidth\BandwidthChannel;
use NotificationChannels\Bandwidth\BandwidthMessage;

class AccountApproved extends Notification implements ShouldQueue
{
    use Queueable;
      
    public function via($notifiable): array
    {
        return [BandwidthChannel::class];
    }
  
    public function toBandwidth($notifiable): BandwidthMessage
    {
        return BandwidthMessage::create()
            ->content("Hi {$notifiable->name}, Your account is approved!");
    }
}

Add the routeNotificationForBandwidth method to your Notifiable model:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
      
    public function routeNotificationForBandwidth($notification)
    {
        return $this->phone_number;
    }
}

Methods available on BandwidthMessage class

  • content() - Accepts a string value for the notification body. (required)
  • from() - Accepts a phone number to use as the notification sender.
  • media() - Accepts a URL or array of URLs to be used as MMS.
  • httpBody() - Accepts an array to send along with notification http payload.
<?php
use NotificationChannels\Bandwidth\BandwidthMessage;

BandwidthMessage::create()
            ->content("This is sample text message.")
            ->from('+19195551212')
            ->media([
                'https://example.com/a-public-image.jpg',
                'https://example.com/a-public-audio.mp3',
            ])
            ->httpBody([
                'tag' => 'info'         
            ]);

Events

  • The package utilises Laravel's inbuilt notification events
  • You can listen to these events in your project's EventServiceProvider like:
<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Support\Providers\EventServiceProvider as ServiceProvider;

class EventServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    protected $listen = [
        \Illuminate\Notifications\Events\NotificationSent::class => [
           // \App\Listeners\BandwidthNotificationSent::class,
        ],
        \Illuminate\Notifications\Events\NotificationFailed::class => [
            \App\Listeners\BandwidthNotificationFailed::class,
        ],
    ];   
}

Here is the example of failed event listener class:

<?php

namespace App\Listeners;

use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use NotificationChannels\Bandwidth\BandwidthChannel;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Events\NotificationFailed;

class BandwidthNotificationFailed implements ShouldQueue
{
    public function handle(NotificationFailed $event)
    {
        if ($event->channel !== BandwidthChannel::class) {
            return;
        }

        /** @var User $user */
        $user = $event->notifiable;
        
        // todo Do something with $user
    }
}

On-demand notification

You can also use Laravel's on-demand notifications to send push notification to number.

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Notification;
use App\Notification\ExampleSMSNotification;

Notification::route('Bandwidth', '+1234567890')   
    ->notify(new ExampleSMSNotification());

Notes (Taken from API docs)

  • The from and to numbers must be in E.164 format, for example +19195551212.
  • Message content length must be 2048 characters or less.
  • Messages larger than 160 characters will be automatically fragmented and re-assembled to fit within the 160 character transport constraints.
