Laravel Comtele

Package to connect to comtele.com.br.

Install the package using composer

composer require andremellow/laravel-comtele

You can export the configuration file

You should not need to export the vendor file, since you can overhide all configurations on the .env file. But just in case you need, just run the following command

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Andremellow\Comtele\ComteleChannelServiceProvider"

Add your Auth Key and Default Sender to your .env file

COMTELE_AUTH_KEY=xxxxxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx
COMTELE_SEND_SENDER="Default Sender here"

At this point, just follow Laravel Notification Documentation

Now add the Notifiable https://laravel.com/docs/6.x/notifications

Create a Notification

php artisan make:notification InvoicePaid

Using The Notifiable Trait

Add Notification Trail to the User class

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
}

Update the Notification Class

Now go to your notification Class and add comtele channel to the via method

/**
 * Get the notification's delivery channels.
 *
 * @param  mixed  $notifiable
 * @return array
 */
public function via($notifiable)
{
    return ['comtele'];
}

Once you fire the notification, laravel will look the toCometele method. So add it to the Notification Class

    /**
     * Get the Comtele / SMS representation of the notification.
     *
     * @param  mixed  $notifiable
     * @return ComteleMessage
     */
    public function toComtele($notifiable)
    {
        return (new ComteleMessage)
            ->sender("Add your sender note here")
            ->content("Add your message here");
    }

Don't forget to import the ComteleMesssage class

use Andremellow\Comtele\Messages\ComteleMessage;

Getting user's phone number

Go back to the User class and add a new method routeNotificationForComtele

/**
     * Route notifications for the Comtele channel.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Notifications\Notification  $notification
     * @return string
     */
    public function routeNotificationForComtele($notification = null)
    {
        return $this->phone_number;
    }

Different of Nexmo, Comtele only sends message to Brazilan carriers. And because of that you don't need to the country number to the phone number. Just use like 319xxxxxxxxx
