Laravel integration for the Intercom SDK.

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

With Composer installed, you can then install the extension using the following commands:

$ php composer.phar require homedoctor-es/laravel-intercom

or add

...
    "require": {
        "homedoctor-es/laravel-intercom": "*"
    }

to the require section of your composer.json file.

Configuration

  1. Register the ServiceProvider in your config/app.php service provider list.

config/app.php

return [
    //other stuff
    'providers' => [
        //other stuff
        \HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\IntercomServiceProvider::class,
    ];
];
  1. If you want, you can add the following facade to the $aliases section.

config/app.php

return [
    //other stuff
    'aliases' => [
        //other stuff
        'Intercom' => \HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\Facades\Intercom::class,
    ];
];
  1. Publish the Intercom provider
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\IntercomServiceProvider"
  1. Set the reference, api_key and base_url in the config/intercom.php file.

config/intercom.php

return [
    'is_channel_active' => env('INTERCOM_CHANNEL_ACTIVE', false),
    'api_token' => env('HOLDED_API_TOKEN'),
    'api_version' => env('HOLDED_API_VERSION', '2.3'),
    'admin_user_id' => env('INTERCOM_ADMIN_USER_ID')
];
  1. Or use .env file
INTERCOM_CHANNEL_ACTIVE=true
HOLDED_API_TOKEN=
HOLDED_API_VERSION=2.3
INTERCOM_ADMIN_USER_ID=

Usage

You can use the facade alias Intercom to execute services of the Intercom sdk. The authentication params will be automatically injected.

$contacts = \HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\Facades\Intercom::users();

Or use Laravel Service Container to get The Intercom Instance.

app(\HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\Intercom::class)->users();

Once you have done this steps, you can use all Intercom SDK endpoints as are described in the sdk package documentation.

##Notification channel usage

Now you can use the channel in your via() method inside the notification:

use HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\Notifications\Channel\IntercomChannel;
use HomedoctorEs\Laravel\Intercom\Notifications\Messages\IntercomMessage;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;

class IntercomNotification extends Notification
{
    public function via($notifiable)
    {
        return ["intercom"];
    }

    public function toIntercom($notifiable): IntercomMessage
    {
        return IntercomMessage::create("This is a test message")
            ->from(config('intercom.admin_user_id'))
            ->toUserId(xxxxx);  //this param can be resolved later in routeNotificationForIntercom
    }
}

And/or in your notifiable model define method returning an array or null if not routed field. Your model must be use Notifiable trait-

class User
{
    use Notifiable;

    // ...

    public function routeNotificationForIntercom($notification): ?array
    {
        if (!$this->intercom_contact_id) {
            return null;
        }
        return [
            'type' => 'user',
            'id' => $this->intercom_contact_id
        ];
    }
}
