Notify Alert

When to use this skill

Use this skill when you want Laravel Notifications to be delivered as alerts in your application's frontend.

Features

Alert Channel

Add Laragear\Alerts\AlertChannel::class to the via() method of your notification.

use Laragear\Alerts\AlertChannel;

public function via(object $notifiable): array
{
    return [AlertChannel::class, 'mail'];
}

The toAlert() Method

Implement the toAlert() method to return an Alert instance. It's recommended to use make() instead of push() here.

use App\Alerts\MyAlert;
use Laragear\Alerts\Alert;

public function toAlert(object $notifiable): Alert
{
    return MyAlert::make()
        ->set('type', 'success')
        ->set('body', 'Your report is ready!');
}

Lifecycle Constraint

The AlertChannel only works during a web request. If the notification is sent via a background queue that doesn't share the same session/request context, the alert will not be visible to the user unless they are using a persistent storage or broadcasting.
