Introduction

This package allows you to add a chat system to your Laravel ^5.4 application

Installation

From the command line, run:

composer require musonza/chat

Add the service provider to your config\app.php the providers array

Musonza\Chat\ChatServiceProvider::class

Add the Facade to your aliases:

'Chat' => Musonza\Chat\Facades\ChatFacade::class to your `config\app.php`

The class is bound to the ioC as chat

$chat = App::make('chat');

Publish the assets:

php artisan vendor:publish

This will publish database migrations and a configuration file musonza_chat.php in the Laravel config folder.

Configuration

return [
    'user_model' => 'App\User',

    /**
     * If not set, the package will use getKeyName() on the user_model specified above
     */
    'user_model_primary_key' => null,

    /*
     * This will allow you to broadcast an event when a message is sent
     * Example:
     * Channel: mc-chat-conversation.2,
     * Event: Musonza\Chat\Eventing\MessageWasSent
     */
    'broadcasts' => false,

    /**
     * The event to fire when a message is sent
     * See Musonza\Chat\Eventing\MessageWasSent if you want to customize.
     */
    'sent_message_event' => 'Musonza\Chat\Eventing\MessageWasSent',

    /**
     * Automatically convert conversations with more than two users to public
     */
    'make_three_or_more_users_public' => true,
];

Run the migrations:

php artisan migrate

Usage

By default the package assumes you have a User model in the App namespace.

However, you can update the user model in musonza_chat.php published in the config folder.

Creating a conversation

$participants = [$userId, $userId2,...];

$conversation = Chat::createConversation($participants);

Creating a conversation of type private / public

$participants = [$userId, $userId2,...];

// Create a private conversation
$conversation = Chat::createConversation($participants)->makePrivate();

// Create a public conversation
$conversation = Chat::createConversation($participants)->makePrivate(false);

Get a conversation by id

$conversation = Chat::conversations()->getById($id);

Update conversation details

$data = ['title' => 'PHP Channel', 'description' => 'PHP Channel Description'];
$conversation->update(['data' => $data]);

Send a text message

$message = Chat::message('Hello')
            ->from($user)
            ->to($conversation)
            ->send();

Send a message of custom type

The default message type is text. If you want to specify custom type you can call the type() function as below:

$message = Chat::message('http://example.com/img')
		->type('image')
		->from($user)
		->to($conversation)
		->send();

Get a message by id

$message = Chat::messages()->getById($id);

Mark a message as read

Chat::message($message)->setUser($user)->markRead();

Flag / mark a message

Chat::message($message)->setUser($user)->toggleFlag();

Chat::message($message)->setUser($user)->flagged(); // true

Mark whole conversation as read

Chat::conversation($conversation)->setUser($user)->readAll();

Unread messages count

$unreadCount = Chat::messages()->setUser($user)->unreadCount();

Unread messages count per Conversation

Chat::conversation($conversation)->setUser($user)->unreadCount();

Delete a message

Chat::message($message)->setUser($user)->delete();

Clear a conversation

Chat::conversation($conversation)->setUser($user)->clear();

Get a conversation between two users

$conversation = Chat::conversations()->between($user1, $user2);

Get common conversations among users

$conversations = Chat::conversations()->common($users);

$users can be an array of user ids ex. [1,4,6] or a collection (\Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection) of users

Remove users from a conversation

/* removing one user */
Chat::conversation($conversation)->removeParticipants($user);
/* removing multiple users */
Chat::conversation($conversation)->removeParticipants([$user1, $user2, $user3,...,$userN]);

Add users to a conversation

/* add one user */
Chat::conversation($conversation)->addParticipants($user);
/* add multiple users */
Chat::conversation($conversation)->addParticipants([$user3, $user4]);

Note: By default, a third user will classify the conversation as not private if it was. See config on how to change this.

Get messages in a conversation

Chat::conversation($conversation)->setUser($user)->getMessages()

Get user conversations by type

// private conversations
$conversations = Chat::conversations()->setUser($user)->isPrivate()->get();

// public conversations
$conversations = Chat::conversations()->setUser($user)->isPrivate(false)->get();

// all conversations
$conversations = Chat::conversations()->setUser($user)->get();

Get recent messages

$messages = Chat::conversations()->setUser($user)->limit(25)->page(1)->get();

Example

[
      "id" => 1
      "private" => "1"
      "data" => []
      "created_at" => "2018-06-02 21:35:52"
      "updated_at" => "2018-06-02 21:35:52"
      "last_message" => array:13 [
        "id" => 2
        "message_id" => "2"
        "conversation_id" => "1"
        "user_id" => "1"
        "is_seen" => "1"
        "is_sender" => "1"
        "flagged" => false
        "created_at" => "2018-06-02 21:35:52"
        "updated_at" => "2018-06-02 21:35:52"
        "deleted_at" => null
        "body" => "Hello 2"
        "type" => "text"
        "sender" => array:7 [
          "id" => 1
          "name" => "Jalyn Ernser"
          "email" => "[email protected]"
        ]
      ]
    ]

Pagination

There are a few ways you can achieve pagination You can specify the limit and page as above using the respective functions or as below:

   $paginated = Chat::conversations()->setUser($user)
            ->setPaginationParams([
                'page' => 3,
                'perPage' => 10,
                'sorting' => "desc",
                'columns' => [
                    '*'
                ],
                'pageName' => 'test'
            ])
            ->get();

You don't have to specify all the parameters. If you leave the parameters out, default values will be used. $paginated above will return Illuminate\Pagination\LengthAwarePaginator To get the conversations simply call $paginated->items()

Get users in a conversation

$users = $conversation->users;
