๐Ÿš€ Quick Start Examples

1. Basic Notification Sending

use Litepie\Notifications\Facades\NotificationManager;

// Send a simple notification
NotificationManager::send($user, 'welcome', [
    'name' => $user->name,
    'email' => $user->email
]);

// Send via specific channels
NotificationManager::via(['mail', 'database'])
    ->send($user, 'order_confirmed', $orderData);

// Send to multiple users
NotificationManager::sendBulk($users, 'newsletter', $content);

2. Advanced Channel Usage

// Database notifications with custom data
NotificationManager::via(['database'])->send($user, 'custom', [
    'title' => 'New Message',
    'message' => 'You have a new message from support',
    'action_url' => '/messages/123',
    'icon' => 'mail'
]);

// Email with custom template

    'content' => 'Hello {{name}}, welcome to our platform!',
    'channel' => 'mail',
    'language' => 'en'
]);

// Use template with variables
NotificationManager::send($user, 'welcome_email', [
    'name' => $user->name,
    'app_name' => config('app.name')
]);

// Multi-language templates
TemplateManager::create('welcome_email', [
    'subject' => 'Bienvenue sur {{app_name}}!',
    'content' => 'Bonjour {{name}}, bienvenue sur notre plateforme!',

๐Ÿค– AI-Powered Features

1. Smart Delivery Optimization

use Litepie\Notifications\Facades\AiOptimizer;

// Get optimal delivery time for user
$optimalTime = AiOptimizer::optimizeDeliveryTime($user->id, 'email');
// Returns: ['optimal_hours' => [9, 14, 18], 'confidence' => 0.85]

// Schedule notification for optimal time
$nextOptimalTime = collect($optimalTime['optimal_hours'])
    ->map(fn($hour) => today()->setHour($hour))
    ->first(fn($time) => $time->isFuture());

NotificationManager::schedule($user, 'newsletter', $data, $nextOptimalTime);

2. Content Personalization

// Personalize notification content using AI
$notification = [
    'subject' => 'Check out our new features!',
    'content' => 'We have some exciting updates for you.',
    'cta' => 'Learn More'
];

$personalizedNotification = AiOptimizer::personalizeContent($notification, $user->id);
// AI adapts content based on user behavior and preferences

NotificationManager::send($user, $personalizedNotification);

3. Spam Detection

// Check if content might be flagged as spam
$spamResult = AiOptimizer::detectSpam([
    'subject' => 'FREE MONEY! URGENT! CLICK NOW!',
    'content' => 'You won $1,000,000! Click here immediately!'
]);

if ($spamResult['is_spam']) {
    // Revise content or skip sending
    Log::warning('Spam detected', $spamResult['reasons']);
} else {
    NotificationManager::send($user, 'promotion', $data);
}

4. Engagement Prediction

// Predict engagement likelihood before sending
$engagementScore = AiOptimizer::predictEngagement($notification, $user->id);

if ($engagementScore > 0.7) {
    // High likelihood of engagement - send immediately
    NotificationManager::send($user, 'promotion', $data);
} else {
    // Low engagement - try different time or content
    $betterTime = AiOptimizer::optimizeDeliveryTime($user->id, 'email');
    NotificationManager::schedule($user, 'promotion', $data, $betterTime);
}

๐Ÿ“Š Advanced Analytics

    'channel' => 'email'
], 'csv');

// Export to CSV for further analysis
file_put_contents('notification_report.csv', $report['data']);

๐Ÿ”— Webhook Integration

1. Register Webhook Endpoints

use Litepie\Notifications\Facades\WebhookManager;

// Register webhook for all events
$endpoint = WebhookManager::registerEndpoint('https://your-app.com/webhooks');

// Register webhook for specific events
$endpoint = WebhookManager::registerEndpoint(
    'https://your-app.com/webhooks/notifications',
    ['notification.sent', 'notification.failed', 'notification.opened'],
    ['Authorization' => 'Bearer your-token']
);

2. Handle Webhook Events

// In your webhook controller
public function handleNotificationWebhook(Request $request)
{
    // Verify webhook signature
    $signature = $request->header('X-Webhook-Signature');
    $timestamp = $request->header('X-Webhook-Timestamp');
    
    // Process webhook data
    $event = $request->input('event');
    $data = $request->input('data');
    
    switch ($event) {
        case 'notification.sent':
            // Handle successful delivery
            $this->handleDeliverySuccess($data);
            break;
            
        case 'notification.failed':
            // Handle delivery failure
            $this->handleDeliveryFailure($data);
            break;
            
        case 'notification.opened':
            // Track engagement
            $this->trackEngagement($data);
            break;
    }
    
    return response()->json(['status' => 'received']);
}

๐Ÿข Multi-Tenant Usage

1. Set Tenant Context

use Litepie\Notifications\Facades\TenantManager;

// Set current tenant (auto-resolves from subdomain, headers, or user)
TenantManager::setTenant('tenant-123');

// All notifications are now scoped to this tenant
NotificationManager::send($user, 'welcome', $data);

2. Tenant Management

// Create new tenant
$tenant = TenantManager::createTenant([
    'name' => 'Acme Corp',
    'slug' => 'acme',
    'configuration' => [
        'mail_from' => 'noreply@acme.com',
        'brand_color' => '#007bff'
    ],
    'limits' => [
        'notifications_per_hour' => 5000,
        'notifications_per_day' => 50000
    ]
]);

// Check tenant limits before sending
if (TenantManager::checkTenantLimits('tenant-123', 'notifications_per_hour')) {
    NotificationManager::send($user, 'promotion', $data);
} else {
    Log::warning('Tenant rate limit exceeded', ['tenant' => 'tenant-123']);
}

// Get tenant usage statistics
$usage = TenantManager::getTenantUsage('tenant-123');
/*
Returns:
[
    'hourly_notifications' => 1250,
    'daily_notifications' => 15000,
    'storage_mb' => 45.2,
    'active_channels' => ['mail', 'sms']

*/

๐ŸŽฏ Rate Limiting & Security

1. Rate Limiting

// Configure rate limits per user/tenant
NotificationManager::rateLimit('user:' . $user->id, 10, 60) // 10 per minute
    ->send($user, 'verification', $data);

// Global rate limiting
NotificationManager::rateLimit('global', 1000, 3600) // 1000 per hour
    ->sendBulk($users, 'newsletter', $data);

2. Content Validation

// Automatic content validation and sanitization
$cleanData = NotificationManager::validateAndClean([
    'title' => $request->input('title'),
    'message' => $request->input('message'),
    'url' => $request->input('url')
]);

NotificationManager::send($user, 'custom', $cleanData);

use Litepie\Notifications\Data\NotificationData;

class DiscordChannel implements ChannelContract
{
    public function send($notifiable, NotificationData $notification): array
    {
        // Implement Discord webhook sending
        $response = Http::post('https://discord.com/api/webhooks/...', [
            'content' => $notification->content,
            'username' => config('app.name')
        ]);
        
        return [
            'status' => $response->successful() ? 'sent' : 'failed',
            'id' => $response->json('id'),
            'timestamp' => now()
        ];
    }
    
    public function supports(string $type): bool
    {
        return $type === 'discord';
    }
    
    public function validate(array $config): bool
    {
        return isset($config['webhook_url']);
    }
}

2. Register Custom Channel

// In your service provider
use Litepie\Notifications\Facades\ChannelManager;

public function boot()
{
    ChannelManager::extend('discord', function ($config) {
        return new DiscordChannel($config);
    });
}

3. Use Custom Channel
