Laravel Fanout

A simple and lightweight Laravel 4.2 and Laravel 5.* wrapper to interact with Fanout Service (fanout.io). Fanout is a SAAS that makes easy to build apps and APIs with realtime updates.

Get Started:

  • First of all, you should create an account on Fanout website (fanout.io)[https://fanout.io] to obtain the service credentials (Realm ID and Realm Key);
  • Install the lib via composer;
  • Update the config file and be happy!

Installation

The Laravel Fanout Service Provider can be installed via ...

composer require ricardofontanelli/laravel-fanout-provider:1.0

or Composer by requiring the ricardofontanelli/laravel-fanout-provider package in your project's composer.json

{
    "require": {
        "ricardofontanelli/laravel-fanout-provider": "1.0"
    }
}

Then run a composer update

php composer update

To use the Laravel Fanout Service Provider, you must register the provider when bootstrapping your application.

In Laravel find the providers key in your config/app.php and register the Laravel Fanout Service Provider.

    // Laravel 4
    'providers' => array(
        // ...
        'RicardoFontanelli\LaravelFanout\FanoutServiceProvider',
    )

    // Laravel 5.*
    'providers' => [
        // ...
        RicardoFontanelli\LaravelFanout\FanoutServiceProvider::class,
    ]

Find the aliases key in your config/app.php and add the Laravel Fanout facade alias.

    // Laravel 4.*
    'aliases' => array(
        // ...
        'Fanout' => 'RicardoFontanelli\LaravelFanout\FanoutFacade',
    )

    // Laravel 5.*
    'aliases' => [
        // ...
        'Fanout' => RicardoFontanelli\LaravelFanout\FanoutFacade::class,
    ]

Publishing the package

Now, you should publish the package to generate the config file, after that, edit the config file with your Fanout credentials.

Laravel 4.2

The config file will be generate here: app/config/packages/ricardofontanelli/laravel-fanout-provider/config.php

php artisan config:publish ricardofontanelli/laravel-fanout-provider

Laravel 5.*

The config file will be generate here: app/config/fanout.php

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="RicardoFontanelli\LaravelFanout\FanoutServiceProvider"

Send a notification:

You have two options to test the front-end, the first is using the fanout Push Test Page, on Control Panel click the button "Push Test Page, on terminal open php artisan tinker and run:

// Send a notification
Fanout::publish('test', 'My first realtime message using Fanout.io!!');

The second one is creating a file called fanout.html like that, pay attention to change the information about your realm id:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>My Awesome Fanout + Laravel Example</title>
        <script src="http://{YOUR-REALM-ID}.fanoutcdn.com/bayeux/static/faye-browser-min.js"></script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h2>My Awesome Fanout + Laravel Example</h2>
        <script>
            var client = new Faye.Client('http://{YOUR-REALM-ID}.fanoutcdn.com/bayeux');
                client.subscribe('my-channel', function (data) {
                alert('Got data: ' + data);
            });
        </script>
    </body>
</html>

Now, open the file fanout.html send your first message usign php artisan tinker and run:

// Send a notification
Fanout::publish('my-channel', 'My first realtime message using Fanout.io!!');

You are free to change the channel name, fanout doesn't force you to create theses channels before send messages.
