Push Notification Using Laravel 8 with Pusher Account Creation
In this blog, we will learn about push notifications using Laravel 8 with pusher account creation. Please follow the below steps to get more clarifications.
Step 1:
For this implementation, we need to install one package
package name: pusher/pusher-php-server
command: composer require pusher/pusher-php-server
Step 2:
Then we have to create an account at Pusher.com. Go to this official website and create a channel. As below snap here we have created some channels. After account creation, you will get an app id, key, secret, cluster. Then add this at .env file
Step 3:
Then you have to create an Event at app/Event folder. You can call any event from anywhere that triggered in the application. Here we will create a notification send event by the below command.
command: php artisan make:event Notification
Step 4:
As below snap now we will create a controller and write a function that sends the notification.
Step 5:
As below snap next, we have to define the URL route at web.php
Step:6
As below snap finally, we need to create a view blade file from where your notification popup will be displayed. At this view, you have to must include pusher.min.js
Finally, you will test your implementation by hitting the URL: http://localhost/pushnotification/public/send, and if you want to see your notification message then hit
this URL: http://localhost/pushnotification/public/notification at another tab and you will see a notification alert popup.
