Step 1: Download laravel-slack using composer

Add nimbles-nl/laravel-slack by running the command:

composer require nimbles-nl/laravel-slack

Step 2: Configure you HTTP Adapter in your service container

Configure the http adapter in your AppServiceProvider.php

use GuzzleHttp\Client as GuzzleClient;
use Http\Adapter\Guzzle6\Client as GuzzleAdapter;


$this->app->singleton('http.client', function() {
    return new GuzzleAdapter(new GuzzleClient());
});

Step 3: Enable the package in app.php

Nimbles\Slack\SlackServiceProvider::class,

Step 4: Configure Slack credentials

php artisan vendor:publish

Add this in you .env file

SLACK_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_secret_slack_access_token

Step 5 (Optional): Configure the package facade

Register the Slack Facade in: config/app.php

'aliases' => [

        'App' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\App::class,
        'Artisan' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Artisan::class,
        'Auth' => Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth::class,
        ...
        'Slack' => Nimbles\Slack\Facade\Slack::class,

Usage

$slackMessage = new SlackMessage('You re looking great today!', '#general', 'AwesomeBot', 'https://www.link-to-avatar.com/image.png');

app('slack')->sendMessage($slackMessage);

Or if you want to use facade, add this in your class after namespace declaration:

Slack::sendMessage(new SlackMessage('You are looking great today!'));
