Installation

The packages is available on Packagist and can be installed via Composer by executing following command in shell.

composer require craftsys/msg91-laravel

prerequisite

• php^7.1|^8.0|^8.1|^8.2|^8.3
• laravel^5|^6|^7|^8|^9|^10|^11|^12

The package is tested for 5.8+, ^6.0, ^7.0, ^8.0, ^9.0, ^10.0, ^11.0, and ^12.0. If you find any bugs for Laravel versions between 5.0 and 5.8, please file an issue.

Laravel 5.5+

If you're using Laravel 5.5 or above, the package will automatically register the Craftsys\Msg91\Msg91LaravelServiceProvider provider and aliases Craftsys\Msg91\Facade\Msg91 facade to Msg91.

Laravel 5.4 and below

Add Craftsys\Msg91\Msg91LaravelServiceProvider to the providers array in your config/app.php:

'providers' => [
     // Other service providers...
     Craftsys\Msg91\Msg91LaravelServiceProvider::class,
],

If you want to use the facade interface, you can use the facade class when needed:

use Craftsys\Msg91\Facade\Msg91;

Or add an alias in your config/app.php

'aliases' => [
    // other aliases here
    'Msg91' => Craftsys\Msg91\Facade\Msg91::class,
],

To verify that everything is working as expected, excecute the following php code somewhere in your application, either in an example route or in php artisan tinker if you are in Laravel.

// this should print the `\Craftsys\Msg91\OTP\OTPService` of some default configuration values
echo Msg91::otp()::class

If there is an issue, please check the steps again or open an issue for support.

Configuration

As the msg91-php offers configuration that are similar to Laravel's configuration, this package simply ports the Laravel's configuration to the msg91-php client.

The package can be configured by providing a msg91 key inside your config/services.php configuration file.

<?php

return [
  // along with other services
  "msg91" => [
    'key' => env("Msg91_KEY"),
  ],
];

and update the .env file to get the desired values e.g. Msg91_KEY.

Please visit msg91-php configuration for a detailed description about the available options and their default values.

Usage

Once you have Configured the Laravel/Lumen application to use the service provider and have aliased the facade to Msg91, you will have a msg91-php client (Craftsys\Msg91\Client) instance.

// send otp
Msg91::otp()->to(919999999999)->send();

// resend otp
Msg91::otp()->to(919999999999)->viaVoice()->resend();

// verify otp
Msg91::otp(678612)->to(919999999999)->verify();

// send sms
Msg91::sms()->to(919999999999)->flow('<flow_id>')->send();

// in bulk
Msg91::sms()->to([919999999999, 918899898990])->flow('<flow_id>')->send();

// with variables in your flow template
Msg91::sms()->to([919999999999, 918899898990])->flow('<flow_id>')->variable('variable_name', 'value')->send();

// with variables per recipient
Msg91::sms()->recipients([
  ['mobiles' => 919999999999, 'name' => 'Sudhir M'],
  ['mobiles' => 918899898990, 'name' => 'Craft Sys']
])
  ->flow('<flow_id>')
  ->send();

Examples

Managing OTPs

OTP services like sending, verifying, and resending etc, can be accessed via otp method on the client instance e.g. Msg91::otp().

For a detailed usage, please visit msg91-php's documentation on managing OTPs.

Send OTP

Msg91::otp()
    ->to(912343434312) // phone number with country code
    ->template('your_template_id') // set the otp template
    ->send(); // send the otp

Verify OTP

Msg91::otp(1234) // OTP to be verified
    ->to(912343434312) // phone number with country code
    ->verify(); // Verify

Resend OTP

Msg91::otp()
    ->to(912343434312) // set the mobile with country code
    ->viaVoice() // set the otp sending method (can be "viaText" as well)
    ->resend(); // resend otp

Sending SMS

Msg91::sms()
    ->to(912343434312) // set the mobile with country code
    ->flow("your_flow_id_here") // set the flow id
    ->send(); // send

Bulk SMS

Msg91::sms()
    ->to([912343434312, 919898889892]) // set the mobiles with country code
    ->flow("your_flow_id_here") // set the flow id
    ->send(); // send

Message Variables

// send in bulk with variables    
Msg91::sms()
    ->to([912343434312, 919898889892]) // set the mobiles with country code
    ->flow("your_flow_id_here") // set the flow id
    ->variable('date', "Sunday") // the the value for variable "date" in your flow message template
    ->send(); // send
    
// send in bulk with variables per recipient
Msg91::sms()
    ->to([912343434312, 919898889892]) // set the mobiles with country code
    ->flow("your_flow_id_here") // set the flow id
    ->recipients([
      ['mobiles' => 919999223345, 'name' => 'Sudhir M'],
      ['mobiles' => 912929223345, 'name' => 'Craft Sys']
    ])
    // (optionally) set a "date" variable for all the recipients
    ->variable('date', "Sunday")
    ->send(); // send

For a detailed usage and options, please visit msg91-php's documentation on sending SMSs.

Handling Responses

All the services will return \Craftsys\Msg91\Support\Response instance for all successfully responses or will throw exceptions if request validation failed (\Craftsys\Msg91\Exceptions\ValidationException)or there was an error in the response (\Craftsys\Msg91\Exceptions\ResponseErrorException).

try {
    $response = $client->otp()->to(919999999999)->send();
} catch (\Craftsys\Msg91\Exceptions\ValidationException $e) {
    // issue with the request e.g. token not provided
} catch (\Craftsys\Msg91\Exceptions\ResponseErrorException $e) {
    // error thrown by msg91 apis or by http client
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    // something else went wrong
    // plese report if this happens :)
}
