A Google Chat notification channel Pacakge for Laravel

Laravel Notification Channel introduced a package known as Google Chat that makes it effortless to send notifications with Laravel 8.x

Installation

You can install the Google Chat notification channel quickly via Composer:

$ composer require laravel-notification-channels/google-chat

Usage

This package provides a way to send notifications utilizing a custom Google chat message channel:

// Create a super simple message
public function toGoogleChat($notifiable)
{
return GoogleChatMessage::create('An invoice was paid!');
}

You can also do simple formatting and advanced card layouts using the package’s provided classes:

// Simple text formatting and routing to a specific chat room
 GoogleChatMessage::create()
  ->text('Someone just paid an invoice... ')
  ->bold('Woo-hoo!')
  ->line('Looking for ')
  ->link(route('invoices'), 'the details?')
  ->to('sales_team'); // ... and route it to specific rooms

 // Advanced card layout
GoogleChatMessage::create()
->text('Invoice Paid! Here\'s the details:')
->card(
Card::create(
Section::create(
KeyValue::create('Amount', '$520.99', '#10004756')
->onClick(route('invoices'))
->button(TextButton::create(route('invoices'), 'View'))
	)
     )
);

Alternate Rooms

In the end, this package has the notion of “alternate” rooms, which you can configure to directly send messages to a Google chat room instead of the default:

// config/google-chat.php
return [
    'spaces' => [
        'sales_team' => 'https://chat.googleapis.com/sales-team-room?key=xxxxx',
        'dev_team' => 'https://chat.googleapis.com/dev-team-room?key=xxxxx',
        'executive' => 'https://chat.googleapis.com/executives?key=xxxxx',
    ]
]

// Usage
GoogleChatMessage::create()->to('dev_team')->...
