README

A simple client to retrieve webmentions for your pages.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require astrotomic/laravel-webmentions

Configuration

At firsts you will have to add your webmention.io API access token to the services.php config file.

return [
    // ...
    'webmention' => [
        'token' => env('WEBMENTION_TOKEN'),
    ],
    // ...
];

Usage

You can retrieve all webmentions for a given URL by calling the get() method on the packages client.

use Astrotomic\Webmentions\Facades\Webmentions;

$records = Webmentions::get('https://gummibeer.dev/blog/2020/human-readable-intervals');

If you omit the url as argument it will automatically use \Illuminate\Http\Request::url() as default. The return value will be an instance of \Astrotomic\Webmentions\Collections\WebmentionsCollection which provides you with predefined filter methods. You can also use the shorthand methods on the client to retrieve a collection of likes, mentions, replies or reposts.

use Astrotomic\Webmentions\Facades\Webmentions;

$likes = Webmentions::likes('https://gummibeer.dev/blog/2020/human-readable-intervals');
$mentions = Webmentions::mentions('https://gummibeer.dev/blog/2020/human-readable-intervals');
$replies = Webmentions::replies('https://gummibeer.dev/blog/2020/human-readable-intervals');
$reposts = Webmentions::reposts('https://gummibeer.dev/blog/2020/human-readable-intervals');

All items will be a corresponding instance of \Astrotomic\Webmentions\Models\Like, \Astrotomic\Webmentions\Models\Mention, \Astrotomic\Webmentions\Models\Reply or \Astrotomic\Webmentions\Models\Repost.

If you only need the count of items you can use the Webmentions::count() method.

use Astrotomic\Webmentions\Facades\Webmentions;

$counts = Webmentions::count('https://gummibeer.dev/blog/2020/human-readable-intervals');
[
  'count' => 52,
  'type' => [
    'like' => 23,
    'mention' => 8,
    'reply' => 16,
    'repost' => 5,
  ],
];

Caching

The client uses a poor man cache by default - so per runtime every domain is only requested once. If you want extended caching behavior you should wrap the calls in a Cache::remember() for example.

Blade Component

To receive webmentions for your page you have to add two <link/> tags to your head. This package provides a <x-webmention-links/> Blade component that makes it easier for you.

<x-webmention-links />
<!-- will use the domain of current request -->
<x-webmention-links domain="gummibeer.dev" />
<!-- will use the given domain -->

<!-- RESULT -->
<link rel="webmention" href="https://webmention.io/gummibeer.dev/webmention" />
<link rel="pingback" href="https://webmention.io/gummibeer.dev/xmlrpc" />

Treeware

You're free to use this package, but if it makes it to your production environment I would highly appreciate you buying the world a tree.

It’s now common knowledge that one of the best tools to tackle the climate crisis and keep our temperatures from rising above 1.5C is to plant trees. If you contribute to my forest you’ll be creating employment for local families and restoring wildlife habitats.
