Firebase Cloud Messaging for Laravel

 Larafirebase is a package by Gentrit Abazi that provides sending push notifications and custom messages with Firebase in Laravel applications. This package uses Firebase Cloud Messaging—a cross-platform messaging solution to send messages at no cost—to send notifications to users on the client-side.

Here is an example notification class that provides the toFirebase() method to send notifications via the custom firebase channel:

 1use Illuminate\Notifications\Notification;
 2use Kutia\Larafirebase\Messages\FirebaseMessage;
 3 
 4class SendBirthdayReminder extends Notification
 5{
 6    /**
 7     * Get the notification's delivery channels.
 8     */
 9    public function via($notifiable)
10    {
11        return ['firebase'];
12    }
13 
14    /**
15     * Get the firebase representation of the notification.
16     */
17    public function toFirebase($notifiable)
18    {
19        $deviceTokens = [
20            '{TOKEN_1}',
21            '{TOKEN_2}'
22        ];
23 
24        return (new FirebaseMessage)
25            ->withTitle('Hey, ', $notifiable->first_name)
26            ->withBody('Happy Birthday!')
27            ->asNotification($deviceTokens);
28            // OR ->asMessage($deviceTokens);
29    }
30}

You'll also need to write client code to receive these messages to use this package. Check out the project's javascript-client folder for an example of how to use this package on the client-side.
