README

This is a Laravel library meant to make it easier to send SMS and switch between multiple SMS Gateways.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require crafted-systems/laravel-sms

The package will register itself automatically.

Then publish the package configuration file

php artisan vendor:publish --provider=CraftedSystems\\LaravelSMS\\SMSServiceProvider

The default gateway is AfricasTalking

Check the config file of all variables required, and then

(new SMS())->send('254712345678','Test SMS');

or using Facade

SMS::send('254712345678','Test SMS');

or using helper

sms()->send('254712345678','Test SMS');

use command

php artisan make:gateway MyGateway

A class MyGateway.php will be generated under App/Gateways folder.

The class extends the SMSContract

Remember to map your gateway in the sms config file.

Apart from declaring your default gateway on the sms config or env files, you can also change the gateway you want to use on the fly. e.g:

SMS::gateway('mygateway')->send('254712345678','Test SMS');

SMS::getBalance();

//or

SMS::gateway('mygateway')->getBalance();

sms()->getDeliveryReports(Request $request);

//or

sms()->gateway('mygateway')->getDeliveryReports(Request $request);
