How to send sms notification to mobile phone with laravel 5.5
Published Date: 10-Nov-2018 | Tags: Laravel 5.5 Email & SMSThis tutorial I want to show you how to send sms to mobile phone by using laravel 5 and nexmo.
Step 2: Register Nexmo Account
Go to nexmo website https://www.nexmo.com and register nexmo account. You can register trail account for testing.
Then we will use the key and secret in Laravel SMS sender configuration.
Step 3: Configure SMS Sender
Please edit this file /config/services.php and add this configuration option.
'nexmo' => [
'key' => 'NEXMO_KEY',
'secret' => 'NEXMO_SECRET',
'sms_from' => 'SENDER_NAME',
],
Step 3: Create Notification File
Please go to command prompt or terminal, and navigate to your project folder, and run this command.
php artisan make:notification SMSNotificationThe above command will create a class file SMSNotification.php in /demo/app/Notifications.
Note: You can use any class name, in here I use SMSNotification.
Step 4: Create SMSContent
Please go to edit this file /demo/app/Notifications/SMSNotification.php, and update via() function by changing return value from email to nexmo. Then add this function in the file.
public function toNexmo($notifiable)
{
return (new NexmoMessage)
->content('Testing Nexmo SMS from Laravel 5');
}So the full content of this file should be like this.
<?php
namespace App\Notifications;
use Illuminate\Bus\Queueable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\NexmoMessage;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Queue\ShouldQueue;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\MailMessage;
class SMSNotification extends Notification
{
use Queueable;
/**
* Create a new notification instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
//
}
/**
* Get the notification's delivery channels.
*
* @param mixed $notifiable
* @return array
*/
public function via($notifiable)
{
return ['nexmo'];
}
/**
* Get the mail representation of the notification.
*
* @param mixed $notifiable
* @return \Illuminate\Notifications\Messages\MailMessage
*/
public function toMail($notifiable)
{
return (new MailMessage)
->line('The introduction to the notification.')
->action('Notification Action', url('/'))
->line('Thank you for using our application!');
}
/**
* Get the array representation of the notification.
*
* @param mixed $notifiable
* @return array
*/
public function toArray($notifiable)
{
return [
//
];
}
public function toNexmo($notifiable)
{
return (new NexmoMessage)
->content('Testing Nexmo SMS from Laravel 5');
}
}
Step 5: How to Send SMS
To be able to send notification, we have to use Notifiable trait in User model (/demo/app/User.php).
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
use Notifiable;
protected $fillable = [
'name', 'email', 'password',
];
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
}
Then you can use the code below to send.
$user = new User();
$user->phone_number= '+85516393555'; // Don't forget specify country code.
$user->notify(new SMSNotification());Please check laravel website for more detail https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/notifications#sms-notifications.
Note: If you cannot send SMS and see SSL certificate error like below
Please go to download cacert.pem file from here https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem. Then go to php.ini and uncomment option curl.cainfo and change it value to point to cacert.pem file.
[curl]
curl.cainfo = "PATH_TO/cacert.pem"
After running the code, you will see an SMS was sent to your phone.
Note: To remove the text at the end of your message, you have to use license account.
Hope you can do it.
